Frost’s poems deal with man in relation with the universe. Man’s environment as seen by frost is quite indifferent to man, neither hostile nor benevolent. Man is alone and frail as compared to the vastness of the universe.
Poetry, he wrote in the Preface, originates from ‘the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings’ which is filtered through ‘emotion recollected in tranquillity’.

Matthew Arnold (24 December 1822 – 15 April 1888) was an English poet and cultural critic who worked as an inspector of schools. He was the son of Thomas Arnold, the famed headmaster of Rugby School, and brother to both Tom Arnold, literary professor, and William Delafield Arnold, novelist and colonial administrator.
During this time Arnold wrote the bulk of his most famous critical works, Essays in Criticism (1865) and Culture and Anarchy (1869), in which he sets forth ideas that greatly reflect the predominant values of the Victorian era.

Poetry is a literary medium which often resonates with the responder on a personal level, through the subject matter of the poem; the techniques are used to portray this study. Robert Frost utilizes many techniques to convey his respect for nature, which consequently makes much of his poetry relevant to the everyday person. His poetry deals with ordinary people, including farmers and workers of his age. Because of his unfeigned interest in and love for rural people, Frost emerged ultimately as a national bard and a poetic sage of America. On the surface, “Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening” focuses on a seemingly unimportant event of the poet stopping one winter evening, mesmerized by the snow and the wood. However, at a figurative level, the poem goes deeper connecting with the people’s everyday life. The poet portrays the universal images that every man thinks about his life what he has done on earth, or through the ordinary situations. A village farmer couple is the protagonist of the poem through whom the psychology of common people are impacted on his writings. The dilemma of a simple stranger shows the psychological conflicts of the contemporary age as reflected in “The Road Not Taken.” In the poem, “Mending Wall,” the difference of opinion of two neighbors can be interpreted at national or international level. Thus this paper examines very familiar issues of the common people of the poet’s age.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

4. ROBERT FROST’S THEMES
Frost’s poems deal with man in relation with the universe. Man’s
environment as seen by frost is quite indifferent to man, neither hostile
nor benevolent. Man is alone and frail as compared to the vastness of
the universe.
5. Such a view of “man on earth confronting the
total universe” is inevitably linked with certain
themes in frost’s poetry.
He liked to use language as it is actually spoken.
He is a poet of deep thoughts. Behind his
descriptions you can find spiritual meaning.
He wrote the poem in such a way that it could
either be about his relationship with his neighbor
or about relationships with any one anywhere.

7. Man’s isolation
One of the most striking themes in Frost’s
poetry is man’s isolation from his universe
or alienation from his environment. Frost
writes in“Desert Places”, “The loneliness
includes me unawares”. Man is essentially
alone, as is borne out in frost’s poetry.
8. Frost is not so much concerned with depicting
the cultural ethos of New England people as with
presenting them “caught up in a struggle with
the elementary problem of existence”.The
New England of Frost reflects his consciousness
of “an agrarian society isolated within an
urbanized world”.
Man is alone in the countryside or in the city
in “Acquainted with the Night”.
9. In “Home Burial”, the lady suffers from a
terrible sense of self-alienation, as well as
alienation from her surroundings. And, more
than the physical loneliness, man suffers from
the loneliness within.
‘My words are nearly always an offense.
I don’t know how to speak of anything.’
10. Some Important Theme in Frost
Poem:
Barrier is the predominant theme
Theme of human limitation
Theme of extinction or death
Theme of love
Theme of affirmation
Man’s Isolation
11. A concern with barrier is the predominant
theme in Frost’s poetry.
Man is always erecting and trying to bring
down barriers-- between man and environment,
between man and man.
Practically all of Frost’s poems depict
the theme of human limitation. The universe
seems chaotic and horrific because man’s
limited faculties cannot comprehend its
meaning. Walls, physical and real, mental and
invisible, separate man from Nature.
12. “Neither Out Far Nor In Deep” shows man’s limitation
concerning the mysterious universe. “Stopping by Woods on
a Snowy Evening” conveys the sense of an impenetrable and
indefinite universe.
The poem has a sad, melancholy or calm tone. The tone is
achieved though the use of continuants in the poem which
gives the slow paces and sad mood.
• In nature you can find beauty and peace at heart. You
cannot choose what you really want to do if you have
“promises to keep”, which are your duty and responsibility
to fulfill.
13. Theme of extinction or death also runs
through the major themes of Frost. In many a
poem he writes of “sleep” which is associated
with death. “Fire and Ice” is a noteworthy
poem on destruction by excess of desire or
hatred. “Stopping byWoods on a Snowy
Evening”, “After Apple Picking”, “An Old
Man’sWinter Night”, all these poems have a
reference to death.
14. Theme of love is central to Frost’s poems. If
there is any force that can help man meet the
challenges of the universe, it is love.
In several of Frost’s poems, the significance of
love between man and woman, or friendly
love is brought out. It is when love breaks
down or fades off that life becomes
unbearable especially for the women in
Frost’s poetry.
15. Theme of affirmation is also found in some
of his poems. Frost ultimately presents the
need for man to make the most of his
situation. Aware of man’s limitations, he yet
desires man to explore and seek knowledge
and truth. Man should learn to accept things
and his limitations cheerfully. He suggests
stoical will and effort in the face of adversity
as in “West Running Brook”.
16. In most of Frost’s poems, the speaker
undergoes a process of self-discovery.The
wood-chopper of “TwoTramps in Mud
Time” realizes by the end of the poem that he
chops wood for love of work only but love
and need should not be separated.
17. There where it is we do not need the wall:
He is all pine and I am apple orchard.
My apple trees will never get across
And eat the cones under his pines, I tell him.
He only says, 'Good fences make good
neighbours'.
Neighbour’s
negative attitude –
good social
relationships cannot
exist when men are
separated from one
another
18. In the face of the mystery and riddle of life
there is necessity for determined human
performance.
19. To Conclude …..
The major themes as discussed above are
expressed through various devices.The
symbolic significance invested in certain
recurring objects like the stars, the snow, the
woods serve to bring home to the reader all
the more vividly the position of Man in the
Universe.
