浅析罗伯特•弗罗斯特的诗歌艺术
摘要：罗伯特•弗罗斯特的诗歌创作在20世纪的美国文坛独树一帜。他在作品中大量运用比喻、象征、反讽、双关等修辞手法，通过这些修辞手法与极为朴实、明白的语言相结合，把他对于社会、人生的见解融入自然景物描写之中。弗罗斯特在诗中重视用头韵、连环韵、相同韵和无韵等韵律艺术，将思想性与艺术性相结合，达到诗歌内容和形式的统一。他的这种自然朴实又富有意蕴的诗歌艺术，不仅成就其经久不衰的声名，也给国内外学者提供了研究的新思路。本文拟以弗罗斯特五首诗作《雪夜林边小驻》、《未选择的路》、《补墙》、《割草》、《摘苹果后》为分析文本，从修辞和韵律两方面分析其中的艺术特色。正是修辞手法和韵律艺术的巧妙融合使其诗歌意蕴深刻，表现出他对自然和生活的热爱。

An Analysis of the Art of Robert Frost’s Poetry
1. Introduction
Robert Frost (1874-1963) is usually labeled as “the most outstanding American poet in the twentieth century” and “the leader of a new age of American poetry” (Untermeyer 1971: 10). Although industrial civilization is prevailing in the twentieth century in America, Frost persists in singing for nature and rural scenery. He captures the inspiration of poetry from daily work and ordinary life in the countryside, namely, the joys and sorrows of the common people, with a unique perspective to explore the wisdom of life philosophy and to show his sincere love for nature. The simple way he composes his poetry gains a large readership at home and abroad, but the unique writing pattern, rhetorical devices, as well as the distance between his poetic appearance and essence arouse readers’ thinking. Many people misunderstand that his poems are merely simple and natural, while in fact, what conceals in the hidden text, through the combination of rhetorical devices and rhymes, is that his unique views on life and his care and love for nature. The honors Frost embraces throughout his career are incomparable to those of any other American poets of his times (Brooks 1973: 65). He won the Pulitzer Prize four times and was the only poet in American literary history who was invited by the President to read his poems at the inauguration. Many of his poems are popular with people home and worldwide. His influence is great not only in his own country, but also goes beyond the U.S.
