Frost, Robert (1874-1963)
| | Class number: | 811.52 | | Abstract: | Robert Frost is widely known as the American bard of nature, pastoral life, and, as he titled one poem, "The Need of Being Versed in Country Things". No poet of the twentieth century examined with such range and depth the complex meaning of nature and country matters. A profound thinker about the importance of the human voice and the dramatic gestures of ordinary speech in the creation of meaning, Frost imbued his lyrics, sonnets, and dramatic verse narratives with both immediacy and immense subtlety. This volume presents Frost's first three books, A Boy's Will (1913), North of Boston (1914), and Mountain Interval (1916). These masterful and innovative collections contain some of Frost's best-known poems including, "Mowing", "Mending Wall", "After Apple Picking", "Home Burial", "The Oven Bird", "Birches", and "The Road Not Taken". There is also a selection of masterpieces from the early 1920s. Robert Faggen's Introduction and Notes reveal Frost's complex relation to modern and classical poetic traditions, his dialogue with science and philosophy, and his achievement of making each poem "A momentary stay against confusion". | | Contents note: | A boy's will; North of Boston; Poems to 1922; | | Record link: | https://library.seeu.edu.mk/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=14180 |
