What is Robert Frost (Critical Insights) about?

Edited and with an introduction by Morris Dickstein, Distinguished Professor of English at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York and senior fellow of the Center for the Humanities, this volume in the Critical Insights series brings together a variety of critical perspectives on Frost's life and works. For readers new to Frost, four original essays provide valuable context for understanding and assessing his work. Together they outline the work's historical and cultural contexts, survey the major pieces of Frost criticism, examine Frost's relationship with modernist poetics, and consider how his use of paradox and contradiction participate in and differ from the use established by Whitman and Emerson. Nine other previously published essays deepen readers' understanding and offer a sampling of the key concerns of contemporary Frost critics. Among these essays, David Sanders draws on Frost's letters and interviews to understand how he developed his poetic voice from careful observation of his New England neighbors and how he sought to make these people visible within the growing mass culture of twentieth century America. Roger Gilbert further examines Frost's poetics
