Robert Frost, an American poet of the late 19th century was dubbed as one of America’s finest poets. Literally, his poems reflect the serene appreciation of quiet living in the countryside, the simple appreciation over small things and the values of life (Fagan, 33). In this paper, I would like to argue that Robert Frost’s poems reflect individuality, despite the gentle poetic words of his poems. Normally, a reader might perceive Frost as an ‘effeminate; due to the quality of his chosen words. Most poets at the time of war use a much stronger voice in order to express ...

Insrtuctor’s Name

It is truth universally acknowledged that the theme of the human’s choice has always been popular with the poets and writers. It is not surprising that Robert Frost, an iconic American poet, addresses it in his most famous and most quoted poem, The Road not Taken (“The Norton Anthology of Poetry” 1232-1233). In spite of the widely spread opinion that the poem raises the problem of “being an individual” or “taking a different road from the masses” (Fagan 293), I strongly believe that the poet’s major intention is to emphasize that no matter what choice we make ...

Robert Frost was one of the most preeminent modernists and existentialists of his time, and his poem “Home Burial” demonstrates the various aspects that made up his modernism quite well. Telling the tale of a domestic dispute that occurs between a frantic woman and her taciturn husband at the death and burial of their young child, Frost showcases the nihilism and despair that occurs when characters and poets alike look at the fragility of human life and relationships. Through his sparse, dialogue-heavy prose, Frost creates a stark, grounded feel to his poem, which is very much in line with modernist/existentialist poetry.

The world can be a dangerous place. The invention of civilization was how human beings escaped from the constant danger of the wilds and began to live in lives of comfort and protection.

Robert Frost (1874-1963) has been acknowledged as one of the leading poets who utilized distinguished features and writing styles. In the introduction to his major poetic works, the editors address his orientation and attitude towards modernism as he integrates significant social changes that were taking place during this period. In my judgment, the poem that best represents the modernism attitude is “mending wall” (1177). This is because frost utilizes symbols derived from everyday life to express his deep ideas citing the two neighbors and a wall that separates their property as in the case of modern settlements in America (Tuten, ...

With the poem featuring first-person narration, Mending Wall by Robert Frost at first seems to be a short story fit into the structure of the poem.

Thus, the poem is exceptional in regard to ...

Choices are things that have been discussed in literature for many years, as it carries a universal resonance for all people who wish to reach a destination or accomplish a goal.

I knew that Henry stealing the book was wrong, but I also knew that Henry ...

In Robert Frost's poems "After Apple Picking" and "Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening," Frost connects the pastoral with deeper meanings within the context of life itself.

These two poems discuss the inevitability of death in the human spirit, with one narrator somewhat more welcoming of it than the other.

In "After Apple Picking," ...

On the other hand, “The Ax-Helve” sees the narrator coming to a greater understanding of his intimidating French neighbor whom he was afraid of before. In this essay, we will examine the ways in ...

Nothing Gold Can Stay by Robert Frost

Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.

So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

People’s existence on earth has been an enduring riddle, but many cultures have had a try or two at answering it, spawning myths of all kinds.

Most myths recognize the existence of a supreme being from which the earth was created and also fostered the existence of the first human beings on earth who eventually generated the whole human race. This paper explains the myths of ...

Using color to make a scene truly come alive and create a distinct image for the reader is a true art form in poetry. Placing color at the forefront in the mind of the reader can take them away from the reality of reading black print on a white page and awaken the imagination, helping them to see what the writer was envisioning while writing, helping to bring home why it was important to the writer that imagery and color be a part of the reading experience for the reader. Two poems which feature heavy use of color to help underscore the writer’s ...

I would choose to work with a cross-functional team. Cross-functional teams are composed of people with different skills, but all cooperate to realize a common goal (Krajewski and Ritzman, 2005).

This group setting would allow me to offer alternative viewpoints to the issue and possible solutions to the tasks. Additionally, I believe the cross-functional team would enhance competitiveness and improve innovation through creative collaborations processes. A cross-functional team is unidirectional since decision-making ...

Globalization has become an increasingly encompassing phenomenon in people’s lives today. Most significantly, globalization has bridged geographical spaces, so that in any context, there seem to be people from different backgrounds; people with different skills and experiences (Chuang, 2013).

Mending Wall by Robert Frost is a simple poem which airs the views and opinions of two farmers. One farmer is rather conventional and wants to repair and rebuild the boundary wall between the two houses during spring. The only reason behind this decision is that of tradition. The tradition of rebuilding the wall in spring has been followed by his grandfathers and father, and hence, he wants to keep up with the tradition. He further maintains and believes in the age old adage, “Good Fences Make Good Neighbours”.
The other farmer is unconventional and reflects before taking an ...

One of the most anthologized, analyzed and quoted poem in American poetry is the work of Robert Frost entitled “The Road not taken” that was published in 1912. Several interpretations made in this poem suggest that the author wanted to express non-conformity and individualism.

The poem has an existential theme that conveys emotion, intellect and ...

In the poem The Road Not Taken, Robert Frost is not suggesting the reader, when confronted with a ‘fork in the road’, take the road less frequented. In fact, neither of the two roads mentioned in the poem are less frequented. In the third stanza of the poem, the author writes:

In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh, I kept the first for another day!

This clearly shows that both the road were covered by leaves that had not been stepped upon, and hence, it traveler would not be able to guess which one had been tread on ...

Thermoregulation is basically temperature regulation. It is a homeostatic process where by the internal temperature of an organism is kept constant within a specific range despite fluctuations in the external temperatures. It is important to note that all homeostatic systems use negative feedback mechanism. This implies that whenever there is a change in external or surrounding temperature of an organism, consequently a corrective mechanism is initiated within or without the organism to counter the change. Not all animals can maintain a constant body temperature; this is possible only for birds and mammals. Such animals are referred to as endotherms or commonly ...

Teaching to English language learners, both in the mainstream classroom and in separate ELL classes for those who are very new to English, brings unique challenges to classroom instruction. Depending on the subject matter you are covering in your classroom, your English-speaking students may be having a difficult time themselves mastering the content, particularly in vocabulary-heavy subjects such as secondary science or subjects that require sophisticated levels of interpretation. These challenges can often make it easy for teachers to lose sight of the challenges that their ELL students are facing in the classroom: imagine moving to Japan as a ninth grader ...
