Frost’s Philosophy in Selected Poems

Name of Author : Deepika Sethi & Dr. Suchitra Vashisth

Abstract: This present paper is a discussion of man and humanity in Frosts poetry. As a poet, Robert Frost is deeply influenced by emotions and events in daily life. Against the background of seemingly mediocre events in daily life seeing ice swaying on birch branches, mending stones on walls, cutting hayfields. Frost captures a deeper meaning, a broader object of Metaphysical expressions such as love, hatred, or conflict. Frost is probably best known as an idyllic poet whose theme is daily life. For example, fixing walls and stopping by the woods on a snowy night was inspired by nature, especially because he was a poultry farmer in New Hampshire. Ironically, before reaching adulthood in New England, Frost was primarily an urban boy, spending most of his time in an urban environment. Perhaps because of his late encounter with rural New England, Frost was so fascinated by nature.
