Publication Date: 2004-12-07
Robert Pack's lifelong delight in Robert Frost's intricate, beautiful, and profound poetry shines through in the essays in this book. He confronts such broad themes as mourning, inheritance, nature, and the imagination, bringing to bear historical, psychological, Darwinian, and close-textual-reading interpretive approaches. The reader encounters Frost as teacher and preacher, Frost's idea of how beliefs are affirmed, and the consoling purpose of Frost's poetic art.
