Description:
In Roads Not Taken, Earl J. Wilcox and Jonathan N. Barron, the editors of the Robert Frost Review, bring a new freshness and depth to the study of one of America's greatest poets. While some critics discounted Frost as a poet without technical skill, rhetorical complexity, or intellectual depth, over the past decade scholars began to view Robert Frost's work from many new perspectives. Critical hermeneutics, culture studies, feminism, post-modernism, and textual editing all had their impact on readings of the poet's life and work. This collection of essays is the first to account for the variety of these new perceptions.
Expand description
Appealing to a wide literary community, and in keeping with Frost's own poetic goals, these twelve essays fall into four distinct categories: gender, biography and cultural studies, the intertext, and poetics and theory.
All the contributors, many of whom have written books on Frost, are widely recognized scholars. Their diverse viewpoints and collective expertise make this volume of essays the most significant contribution to Frost criticism to be published in over twenty years.
