Robert frost's poetry presented by fakharh muhabat
This document discusses Robert Frost's perspective on man's relationship with nature, God, and other men as portrayed in his poetry. Frost saw nature as a formidable force that humans must struggle against but believed that humanity has been slightly more successful than nature over time, allowing our population to grow. His poems often depict humans as isolated and having difficulty connecting with one another. Despite our separateness, Frost also believed that we are social beings who can find connection through shared experiences and tasks. The document also contrasts Frost's preference for the meaningful simplicity of rural life compared to the complexity of urban environments.

Robert Frost
This document provides a biography of American poet Robert Frost and analyzes his famous poem "The Road Not Taken." It discusses Frost's early life, career, works, and personal life. It then examines two interpretations of "The Road Not Taken": a literal interpretation seeing it as inspirational about individualism, and an ironic interpretation viewing it as about regret and rationalizing decisions. The poem explores the idea of choices and their consequences through the metaphor of taking a road.
"Butterfly" Analysis
The poem describes a yellow butterfly that the author sees in the ghetto, representing freedom and beauty. The author has been imprisoned in the ghetto for 7 years, where butterflies do not live, and sees this one butterfly as the last of its kind there. Knowing the context, the poem was written by Pavel Friedman in the Nazi concentration camp of Terezin during WWII. It reflects on beauty and life found even in such a dismal place, before the author himself perished at Auschwitz.
The tuft of flowers
The speaker goes to a field where grass has been mowed. He feels lonely until he sees a butterfly that leads him to a remaining tuft of flowers. The sight of the flowers awakens in him a sense of kinship with the mower, banishing his loneliness. He now feels as if working alongside the mower. The poem explores our human need for community and belonging.

Percy bysshe shelley
Ozymandias tells the story of a traveler who comes upon a statue in the desert. The traveler sees two enormous stone legs and a shattered face lying on the sand. The face still bears a look of cold command and passion, though it is broken. On the pedestal are the words "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!" However, nothing remains of the king's works - only the decaying statue remains, surrounded by endless, lonely sands.
Percy shelley
Percy Bysshe Shelley was a major English Romantic poet. He was born in England to a Member of Parliament in 1792. Shelley eloped twice, first with Harriet Westbrook with whom he had two children, and then with Mary Godwin after his first marriage collapsed. Mary Shelley later wrote Frankenstein. Shelley died by drowning at age 30 in 1822 when his ship sank during a storm in the Gulf of Spezia in Italy.
Poems of P.B.Shelley
Shelley is by far the most talented and at the same time most controversial of all the Romantics.
In his short life of 29 and a half years, he created some literary jewels which time has not been able to stale.
Shelleyโs main works comprise of Ozymandias, Ode to the West Wind, To a Skylark, Music, When Soft Voices Die, The Cloud, and The Mask of Anarchy. His other major works include long, visionary poems such as Queen Mob, Alastor, The Revolt of Islam, Adonais, The unfinished work The Triumph of Life; and the visionary verse drama The Cencis(1819) and Prometheus Unbound(1820).
Shelleyโs joy, his magnanimity, his faith in humanity, and his optimism are unique among the Romantics.

Some of his most famous works include the poems Ozymandias, Prometheus Unbound, and Queen Mab as well as the essays A Defence of Poetry and The Necessity of Atheism. Though he died young by drowning, Shelley is considered one of the major English Romantic poets and his works often dealt with themes of political and intellectual freedom.
Robert frostโs out out
The poem "Out, Out-" by Robert Frost depicts the accidental death of a young boy working with a buzz saw. It uses vivid imagery and references to Shakespeare's Macbeth to portray how life is brief and fragile. The buzz saw represents the mechanization and loss of childhood through labor. Though the details are ordinary, the poem conveys a profound statement about the ephemeral nature of life and how death can come suddenly, signifying nothing.
Frost Out,Out
1. A boy was helping his family cut wood with a buzz saw when it suddenly jumped and cut off his hand.
2. Though the doctor was called, the boy went into shock from blood loss and died before he could arrive.
3. The family was devastated by the boy's death but had to continue on with their lives and return to their daily affairs.

PowerPoint I - Robert Frost
For this EDU 290H assignment, I designed a PowerPoint presentation on Robert Frost. I covers his biography and a sample of his work.

The references for the photos are next to the images on the slides, while the citations for the textbooks are found at the end of the presentation. Before I made the PowerPoint, I developed a planning document, which includes the type of information I was going to insert into the presentation. When finished, I uploaded the PowerPoint presentation to slideshare.net, and via slideshare, I embedded the PowerPoint presentation onto my Wikispace Page.
