Abstract:
Robert Frost was the most popular poet of the twentieth century. He won the Pulitzer Prize for poetry four times and was even awarded the position of Consultant in Poetry at the Library of Congress (a position later called Poet Laureate of the United States). In <i>A Student's Guide to Robert Frost</i>, the career of this literary giant is examined, offering accessible insight for young readers. Poems are put into historical and biographical context, with special emphasis placed on curriculum-related works, including Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening, The Road Not Taken, The Gift Outright, and Fire and Ice.
