内容説明

The author places the poetry of Robert Frost in the context and tradition of the writings of various American and English Romantic writers, including Thoreau, Emerson, Wordsworth, Coleridge, Shelley and Keats. He examines the variety of responses that Frost makes towards Romantic ideas on the mind, nature and spiritual value. His kinship and differences with his forebears, who provide key images, figures and symbols for his poems, indicate that Frost's poems prove to be a dialectic with his predecessors. The poems are to be seen from both a Romantic and anti-Romantic perspective.
