弗罗斯特两首名诗对比分析 摘 要：弗罗斯特的诗歌以新英格兰地区的田园生活和自然风光为背景，清新自然；以新英格兰口语为表达方式，通俗易懂；而浅显的文字下深邃的哲理又发人深省。这类诗歌的代表作当属《未选择的路》和《雪夜林边驻足》。本文将以“戏剧独白”为框架，以“句子—声音理论”为研究方法，对比分析这两首诗歌，得出它们在情景、语言、人物形象三方面的异同点。最后客观地从诗人的生活经历着手对异同点做出解释，从而得出诗人的生活经历影响诗歌创作的结论。 关键词：罗伯特·弗罗斯特；戏剧独白；句子—声音理论；生活经历 CONTENTS Introduction 1 1.

He was therefore considered to be the New England poet and the greatest national poet of the twentieth century America. During his lifetime, he received forty-four honorary degrees from colleges and universities including the famous Oxford and Cambridge and won the Pulitzer Prize for poetry for four times, in 1924, 1931, 1937, and 1943.
