This essay surveys the view of life manifested in Robert Frost’s tragic poems with special reference to the poet’s personal tragic life and his insight into human nature. In this essay, I read some of Frost’s poems describing constant problems such as human loneliness, communication problems, economic crisis, deaths of family members, etc. Frost’s tragic poems show an aspect of ambivalence in that life is difficult but “Earth’s the right place for love.” This philosophy was created in his efforts not to lose his sense of the equilibrium of life. By renewing and broadening the view of both the universality and the particularity of Frost’s poetry, we can understand the poet’s profound philosophy on the nature of human beings, God, life, and death.
