图书简介
Henry Harts The Life of Robert Frost, goes beyond current biographies to present a unique and rich approach to the poet, revealing new details about his life and background. This illuminating new biography includes original genealogical research concerning Frosts ancestors in New England, England, and Scotland. Hart also includes new information about Robert Frosts father, who died from consumption when Frost was 11. Past biographies have tended to discount the traumatic effect of his fathers death; but Hart reveals how the death haunted both Frost and his sister (Jeanie) who died in a mental hospital, demonstrating how mental illness -- especially depression and schizophrenia -- plagued the Frost family, and heavily influenced Frosts state of mind and, as a result, his poetry. Hart places great emphasis throughout the biography on Frosts turbulent marriage and family life, revealing how they provided important inspiration and material for his poems. Since Frost periodically described himself as a mystic, there is also essential discussion on the effect of his mothers Swedenborgian mysticism -- and mysticism in general -- on Frosts writing. The result is a fascinating portrayal of a brilliant poet who persevered through repeated family tragedies to eventually receive iconic status around the world.
