This paper discusses one of Frost's more popular works. In order to be able to grasp the profound inner meaning that Robert Frost may have intended in "Stopping by Wood on a Snowy Evening," it is important to keep in mind what the poet said in his modernist statement: "The Figure a Poem Makes". In this statement, he implied that a poem faces the duality of freedom and form, a reality that is also analogous to humankind in the human condition. In many respects, "Stopping by Wood on a Snowy Evening" can be understood in this context, since the carriage rider faces a choice of free will, while at the same time having predestination impose itself on his decision-making. 5 pgs. 2 f/c. 0b.
