Neither Out Far Nor In Deep□不深也不远The people along the sandAll turn and look one way.They turn their back on theland.They look at the sea all day.As long as it takes to passA ship keeps raising itshull。
The wetter ground like glassReflects a standing gull人们走上沙滩转身朝着一个方向。
他们背对着陆地整日凝望海洋。
当一只船从远处过来船身便不断升高;潮湿的沙滩像明镜映出一只静立的鸟。
The land may vary more。
But wherever the truth may be--The water comes ashore,And the people look at the sea.They cannot look out far.They cannot look in deep.But when was that ever a barTo any watch they keep?也许陆地变化更多;但无论真相在哪边——海水涌上岸来,人们凝望着海洋。
他们望不太深。
他们望不太远。
但有什么能够遮挡他们凝望的目光?The Road Not Taken□ 未选择的路Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel bothAnd be one traveler, long I stoodAnd looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth。

• The last line repeats the first line, which further deepens the theme of the poem. The moon shines on the night, which means time is witnessing the speaker's loneliness. With the company of time, he may not be lonely. Through the night in the city of the pain and confusion of the spiritual journey, in a sense, the speaker has a recognition of the night. The night is no longer so terrible, and loneliness is not so terrible, so he always thinks that he knows the night best and the sense of loneliness in people's heart.

美国文学Robert Frost
• In 1912, he and his family moved to England, where he found a publisher for his first book of verse, A boy’s will (1913). • Determined to win recognition in his native land, Frost returned to the US and settled on a farm in his native land. • By the end of his life he had become a national poet; he received honorary degrees from forty-four colleges and universities and won four Pulitzer
Poems:
《白桦 》
After Apple-Picking

《摘罢苹果 》
Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening
《雪夜伫立林边有感 》
The Road Not Taken
《未选择的路 》
•III. Frost’s View and Theme
• His poetry concerns New England’s nature. He saw nature as a storehouse of analogy and symbol, so his concern with nature reflected deep moral uncertainties. • His poetry often probes mysterious of darkness and irrationality in the bleak and chaotic landscapes of an indifferent universe. • The quest of the solitary person to make sense of the world has become the central theme of all Frost’s collections and made his poetry among the most accessible of modern writers. • The poetry of Robert Frost combined pastoral imagery with solitary philosophical themes.

A Prayer in Spring
Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers today; And give us not to think so far away As the uncertain harvest; keep us here All simply in the springing of the year.
让我们在狂飞乱舞的鸟中, 幸福 当蜂群之上突然传来他们的 声音 如同针尖般的鸟嘴,流星挤 进来 又冲过中间空气中安静的一 朵花
For this is love and nothing else is love, The which it is reserved for God above To sanctify to what far ends He will, But which it only needs that we fulfil.
Robert said:
• “all poetry is a reproduction of the tones of actual speech.”
诗乃实际说话音调之复制品。
• “Writing free verse is like playing tennis with the net down.”
b. Rejected the revolutionary poetic principles of his
contemporaries(同代人), he used traditional forms such as the blank verse(无韵诗) , plain language(明语) of rural New Englanders. c. There is a steady tone of wry(歪曲的,讽刺的) humor, and a virtually inexhaustible(无穷无尽的) verbal grace. d. As a whole, Frost’s art is an act of clarification, which, without simplifying the truth, renders it in some degree accessible everyone.

Frost’s poetic theory
• He emphasized on the dramatic qualities of poetry. • He believed that all poetry is essentially metaphorical. • He insisted that poetry cannot be forced into being. • He thought that poetry serves as a means of giving patterns to man’s existence.
The impact of Marxism, Freudianism and European modern art on American modern literature: Between the mid-l9th century and the first decade of the 20th century, there had been a big flush of new theories and new ideas in both social and natural sciences, as well as in the field of art in Europe, which played an indispensable role in bringing about modernism and the modernistic writings in the United States.
• From 1897 to 1899,attended Harvard College as a special student but left without a degree.
罗伯斯特
作品风格罗伯特·弗罗斯特(RobertFrost,1874-1963)是最受人喜爱的美国诗人之一,留下了《林间空地》、《未曾选择的路》、《雪夜林边小驻》等许多脍炙人口的作品。
日前,美国弗吉尼亚大学的英语文学研究生罗伯特·斯蒂灵发现了一首从未发表过的弗罗斯特诗作,题为《家中的战争断想》(War Thought sat Home)。
在一封写于1947年的信件中,弗罗斯特向友人弗雷德里希·梅尔彻(FredericMelcher)提到了这首诗,后者是行业杂志《出版人周刊》的创办人。
弗罗斯特在信中说这首诗没有发表,而是手抄在一本《波士顿之北》(弗罗斯特出版的第二部诗作)上。
读到这封信之后,斯蒂灵就开始了搜寻工作,最终在学校图书馆里找到了这本书,弗罗斯特抄在书里的诗也因此面世。
这首诗作于1918年,是弗罗斯特为在法国战场上阵亡的英国诗人爱德华·托马斯(EdwardThomas,1878-1917)写的。
诗的内容是一名士兵的妻子看到几只蓝松鸦在自家窗外打斗,由此想到了法国战场上的士兵。
一战初期,弗罗斯特曾在英国居留,由此与托马斯成了朋友。
托马斯在前线阵亡的时候,身边还带着一本弗罗斯特的《山洼》(MountainInterval)。
作为一个现代诗人,在诗歌的形式上,弗罗斯特走出了一条与20世纪多数诗人迥然不同的道路。
他并没有标新立异,企图尝试诗歌形式的改革,而是继承传统,满足于用旧形式表达新内容。
他喜欢用浅显易懂的口语,语气平缓、冷静,采用人们熟悉的韵律。
他的诗一般都遵从了传统的韵律形式,比如押韵的双行体、三行体、四行体、十四行体都写的相当出色。
弗罗斯特很少写自由诗,他曾说过,诗歌如不讲韵律,就像打网球不设拦网一样。
他对抑扬格似乎情有独钟,他曾说:“对英语诗歌而言,抑扬格和稍加变化的抑扬格是唯一自然的韵律。
”的确,英诗四个主要音步——抑扬格、抑抑扬格、扬抑格、和扬抑抑格——中,抑扬格是迄今英诗中最常见的音步,从而也被称为最自然的韵律,即一个弱读音节后跟一个重读音节。

Whose woods these are I think I know.

He gives his harness bells a shake To ask if there is some mistake . The only other sound’s the sweep Of easy wind and downy flake.

美国文学Unit17(4)RobertFrost
火与冰 有人断言世界将毁于火, 有人确信将毁于冰。 我赞同世界将焚于火, 因为我受尽欲火折磨。 假如世界注定要两番遭劫, 我,对冰冷的仇恨体验深刻, 会说冰有同样大的力量, 足以毁灭世界。
(彭予 译, 《二十世纪英美抒情诗选》, 河南大学出版社,1987)
Scientific Interpretation of Fire and Ice
Some think that the earth may be burnt up by the sun (fire), Others say Ice Age will kill life on the Earth.
Spiritual and Psychological meaning of the Symbols in the poem
1.
1. What are the symbolic meanings of fire in this poem? Fire symbolizes natural disaster, human passion, as well as war.
2. Why does the speaker say that ice is also great for destruction? Explain what ice stands for here. Ice, oppose to fire, is also a dreadful natural disaster in this world, and ice is always related to indifference, coldness, hatred, and the other negative sentiments of human beings.
Part V Robert Frost 美国文学 罗伯特弗罗斯特
1920
1920 Frost purchased a farm in South Shaftsbury, Vermont, near
Middlebury College where he confounded the Bread Loaf School and Conference of English. His wife died in 1938 and he lost four of his children. Two of his daughters suffered mental breakdowns, and his son Carol, a frustrated poet and farmer, committed suicide. Frost also suffered from depression and the continual self-doubt led him to cling to the desire to be awarded the Nobel Prize for literature. After the death of his wife, Frost became strongly attracted to Kay Morrison, whom he employed as his secretary and adviser. Frost also composed for her one of his finest love poems, 'A Witness Tree.'
Poems
Frost's poems show deep appreciation of natural world
and sensibility about the human aspirations. His images - woods, stars, houses, brooks, - are usually taken from everyday life. With his down-to-earth approach to his subjects, readers found it is easy to follow the poet into deeper truths, without being burdened with pedantry. Often Frost used the rhythms and vocabulary of ordinary ch or even the looser free verse of dialogue.

• Elliott, their first child, was born on September 29, 1896. Elliott's death, from cholera, in July of 1900, was the first of many family tragedies that Frost would endure. Between 1899 and 1907, Elinor and Robert had five more children--another son, Carol, and four daughters, the last of whom lived for only three days. Frost's mother also died in 1900, of cancer. The following year saw the death of his grandfather, William Prescott Frost, Sr., who left his grandson a yearly annuity of $500.00 (a substantial amount at the time) and the use of his farm in Derry, New Hampshire, for a period of ten years, after which Robert would become its owner.

• Frost was not inclined to take sides when confronted by paradoxes of life. He seemed universally calm and controlled, standing in the middle of the road viewing good and evil, beautiful and ugly. He did not stoop to answer, to explain, leaving conclusions to be drawn by the reader, or even, by future time.
• Two volumes—A Boy’s Will, named for one of Longfellow’s best poems, and North of Boston---were published in 1913and 1914 and were well enough received to create favorable repercussions (echo) in the US.

(from North of Boston)
Something there is that doesn't love a wall 有一点什么,它大概是不喜欢墙, That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it, 它使得墙脚下的冻地涨得隆起, And spills the upper boulders in the sun; 大白天的把墙头石块弄得纷纷落: And makes gaps even two can pass abreast. 使得墙裂了缝,二人并肩都走得过。 The work of hunters is another thing: 绅士们行猎时又是另一番糟蹋: I have come after them and made repair 他们要掀开每块石头上的石头, Where they have left not one stone on a stone, 我总是跟在他们后面去修补, But they would have the rabbit out of hiding, 但是他们要把兔子从隐处赶出来,

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both. And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth;
那天清晨落叶满地, 两条都是未经脚步践踏的小径, 呵,留下一条路等下次再走 但我知道路径延绵没有尽头, 恐怕一走就再难回首。
