Robert Frost is an American poet – What do you find specifically American in his poems and what do you find is universal?

Robert Frost wrote worldy poetrys about e actually twenty-four hour period rural life sentence that are closely linked with human emotions. Most of his poems contain mystical meanings that are non clear at first sight.Firstly, I get out lambaste of the specifically American aspects in Frosts poems. One thing sometimes found in Frosts poems that is American is the air in which the poem is set. The locations of Frosts poems oft give a feeling of wide stretching forests and fields that go on for miles that dont exist in many other countries.I let my neighbor know beyond the hillAnd on a day we meet to strait the lineThis phrase, from touch on Wall, immediately suggests grand amounts of quadrangle as the speaker duologue of, beyond the hill, having a hill on whizzs land indicates that it must be spacious, and, we meet to walk the line, this walking the line gives an image of a boundary between 2 sizeable pieces of territory. After Apple-Picking overly gives a sense of im work forcese space with its title and subject matter. The title tells the reader of the event that is occurring in Frosts grove. Having an orchard on ones property implies a huge amount of land is owned. two roads diverged in a yellow wood,And looked down one as further around as I couldTo where it bent in the underwoodThese phrases from The Road Not Taken also indicate a spacious space. The second of the two phrases especially does this as the path travels so far in to the enormous wood that the speaker can not retrieve its end, he can only see where it bends further on. around boy too far past from town to learn baseballThis line from Birches also emphasizes the space in America. The fact that a boy I too far from the nearest town to learn how to take baseball shows that there is a lot of room between heavily populated areas. Robert Frost uses the landscapes size to indicate a feeling of isolation and loneliness.Another American aspect of Frosts poems are certain word sp ell outs and place names.neighbor Mending Wallcolor Gathering LeavesVermont Out, Out woodchuck After Apple PickingAxe-helve Axe-helveThe first two phrases are spelling differences from United Kingdom English. Vermont is a state in America. woodchuck is an brute native to America and an Axe-helve is the American way of saying axe handle. However, I believe that these parts of the poems are seeming(prenominal) and arent really important to the poems satisfy and idea.American traditions are also sometimes mentioned in Frosts poems.I equivalent to think some boys been tripping on themThis line, from Birches, talks of the tradition of swinging from branches of birch trees. The speaker tells the reader of how young boys, who are far away(p) from a town and other young children, like to swing from branches. Birches also mentions another American tradition,Some boy too far away from town to learn baseballLastly, I pull up stakes discuss the classifiable American climate that is portrayed in Frosts poems.We sit indoors and talk of the cold outside.And every gust that gathers strength and heavesIs a little terror to the house.It is not often that you see climates like this outside of America, Especially not in the United Kingdom.He will not see me halt hereTo watch his woodwind instrument fill up with snow.This line is from taenia By Woods On A Snowy Evening. This is also very much an American climate. Snow is quite rare in most other countries including the United Kingdom, particularly to the extent shown in this poem.I will now talk of the Universal aspects in Frosts poems. One aspect of Frosts poems that is not centred on America is human emotions and philosophies. For example, at first sight Mending Wall seems to be a poem about two men building a wall between their two properties, however, the poem has a unnoticeable meaning. The poem is really focused on the human barriers that quite a little put up between themselves and others and the traditiona l views that the speaker disagrees with. This is a briny characteristic of Frosts poems and is featured in most of his work.There is also a hidden meaning in lemniscus By Woods On a Snowy Evening. On the surface the poem talks about a man who stops by some woods to watch them fill up with snow, however, its hidden meaning is about a man who seems somewhat weary of life and he wants to take a time out, but he can not do this as he has other responsibilities to adhere to. Another example of this is the poem The Road Not Taken. This poem talks of a man trying to decide which road to talk in a wood. Its hidden meaning is about the choices we have to make and how we can come to call into question if we have chosen the right path.Also other aspects of Frosts poems that are customary are his verse structures and some of his poesy patterns. However, also some of his hoarfrost patterns were unique and exclusive to him. An example of this can be taken from Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Ev ening. He uses the same rhyme sound for each line in the four-lined verse, turf out for line three when he uses a new rhyme sound. He then carries this rhyme down to the next verse as the gross rhyme sound and so on. When he reaches the last verse the rhyme sounds are all the same. This is a very clever technique as it makes the poem flow well and allows the reader to see the interconnecting superficial story and hidden meaning. Also by keeping the rhyme sound eternal in the last verse he makes his final point persist out and rounds off the poem.In conclusion, I would say that on the unanimous Frosts poems are universal and have universal appeal as they cover mainly with human emotions. The aspects of his poems that are specific to America are superficial and have no real relation to the poems themes and ideas.
