Robert Frost has been loved not only by critics but by general readers as well. He enjoyed an unrivaled popularity with a general readership among twentieth century American poets. This popularity was resulted from his refusal to be a part of the ferment of Modernist. Instead, he chose “the old-fashioned way to be new.” Although he is focusing on the sympathy between nature and humans like Romantist, he interprets the relationship with point of view of his own times. Frost’s speakers mostly feel isolation from nature unlike Romantist. This isolation refers to the isolation modern people feel in their life. He can be “a poet for all sorts and kinds” with his choice to intend to differentiate himself from his contemporaries. For him, poetry can be “a momentary stay against confusion” of life. What he really wants is that his readers feel consolation and get wisdom through his poems.
