Robert Frost: an anthology of recent criticism

Contributor(s): Manorama Trikha, edMaterial type: TextTextSeries: New OrientationsPublication details: Delhi Ace 1990Description: 207pISBN: 8185433011Subject(s): American literature | Robert FrostDDC classification: 811.5 Summary: This anthology, an exciting and fairly extensive coverage of recent criticism on the poetry of Robert Frost, problematizes his representations of modernism, pastoralism, poetic theory, and several of his other major concerns. The enormous effort made by Frost to resolve the discords of his life into controlled art stays, covertly when not overtly, at the heart of these essays. They examine, within the specific parameters of their discussions, the poet's lapses and successes in arriving at proper "connections" between past and present, man and nature, life and poetry, and chaos and order. This alone, most critics in this anthology tend to discern, makes for the survival value of Frost's "thoughtfelt vision of human experience" in "a culture full of disconnections".
