Abstract

Robert Frost is arguably the greatest American poet of 20th Century and if there is any truth to Emerson’s maxim “to be great is to be misunderstood,” then definitely Robert Frost is great as he is one of the most misunderstood poets. Critics have hotly debated whether or not he is a Nature-poet. This paper intends to examine the claim of Frost being a Nature-poet with an ecocritical perspective. We will review The Tuft of Flowers to understand whether or not he can be called Nature-poet. Humans have been writing poems about Nature for centuries and Frost has also described hills, mountains, valleys, rivers, forests, woods, flowers, animals, seasons, and seasonal changes in his poems in a beautiful way, but does description of flora and fauna in the poem makes the poet a Nature-poet has been studied in this paper.

罗伯特·弗罗斯特作为自然诗人:一种生态批评的观点

罗伯特·弗罗斯特可以说是20世纪最伟大的美国诗人，如果爱默生的格言“伟大就是被误解”有任何道理的话，那么罗伯特·弗罗斯特绝对是伟大的，因为他是最被误解的诗人之一。评论家们就他是否是一位自然诗人展开了激烈的争论。本文试图从生态批评的角度来审视弗罗斯特作为自然诗人的主张。我们将回顾《一丛花》来了解他是否可以被称为自然诗人。几个世纪以来，人类一直在写关于自然的诗，弗罗斯特也在他的诗中以美丽的方式描述了丘陵、山脉、山谷、河流、森林、森林、花卉、动物、季节和季节变化，但诗歌中对动植物的描述是否使诗人成为自然诗人，本文进行了研究。

期刊介绍： Asiatic is the very first international journal on English writings by Asian writers and writers of Asian origin, currently being the only one of its kind. It aims to publish high-quality researches and outstanding creative works combining the broad fields of literature and linguistics on the same intellectual platform. Asiatic will contain a rich collection of selected articles on issues that deal with Asian Englishes, Asian cultures and Asian literatures in English, including diasporic literature and Asian literatures in translation. Articles may include studies that address the multidimensional impacts of the English Language on a wide variety of Asian cultures (South Asian, East Asian, Southeast Asian and others). Subjects of debates and discussions will encompass the socio-economic facet of the Asian world in relation to current academic investigations on literature, culture and linguistics. This approach will present the works of English-trained Asian writers and scholars, having English as the unifying device and Asia as a fundamental backdrop of their study. The three different segments that will be featured in each issue of Asiatic are: (i) critical writings on literary, cultural and linguistics studies, (ii) creative writings that include works of prose fiction and selections of poetry and (iv) review articles on Asian books, novels and plays produced in English (or translated into English). These works will reflect how elements of western and Asian are both subtly and intensely intertwined as a result of acculturation, globalisation and such.
