description | Our work is about Robert Frost, one of the most popular American poets. Frost was considered the most successful poet of nature in the United States. Frost was born in San Francisco, California, in 1874 and died in 1963. Robert Frost loved nature. His poetry was full of sentimental expressions about his personal life and conduct. Besides, his poems are simple and profound. He also wrote simple stories about everyday people, often inhabitants of rural New England. Robert Frost wrote extraordinary prose, using simple and direct language; his poems contain symbolism, hidden meanings, sounds, rhyme, meter, metaphors and more. The first part of our work is about Robert Frost´s life; it is divided into four parts: early life, adult years, marriage and family and death. The second part is a summary about the history of the United States during Frost´s lifetime. It contains information on the Spanish American War, World War I, Women´s Suffrage, the Stock Market Crash, the New Deal, the World War II, Korea and the Space Technology. The third part is an analysis of ten selected poems with respect to nature and philosophy. Reluctante , The Pasture , The Road not taken , Fire and Ice, Acquainted with the Night, Mending Wall, Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening , Nothing Gold can Stay , The Sound of the Trees and Into my Own. With respect to each poem we have analyzed the literary devices used by Frost such as meter, rhyme, symbolism, metaphor, simile, and personification, among others. In the fourth part there is a comparison of Frost to Emily Dickinson wit respect to nature and philosophy in their poetry. |
