What human traits are suggested by the first stanza of the poem "the road not taken"

English

Answer:

The poem indeed is tricky.

The poem is writtern in first person which again raises a question whether the speaker is the poet himself or a character created for the purpose of the poem.

However the central theme of the poem is about making choices. The narrator comes to a split in the road and wishes to take both. Here the fork, the split signifies the choices that we have to make at some point or the other in our lives. One way looks as if it has been travelled frequently and is safer, easier route to continue. However the other one does not look like it has been frequently used and hence might be problematic.

He ends up by selecting the road less travelled and says that someday he will come back to travel the road not taken. Although he is quite uncertain of that possibility, yet he convinces himself to travel the road less travelled.He says that selecting that road has made all the difference to his life.

So the poet depicts the character of a person as-

Someone who thinks out of the box.

Someone who is renegade or a risk taker. What does not kill you,does not make you stronger.

A person seeking adventure.

Need of a challenge. The longing of the Frost to travel the less visited road demonstrates the need of a challenge in his life.

The philosopher Frost. The way he compares both the roads and feels sorry for the one he could not take. The sentence- ‘has made all the difference to my life’ says it all.

Hope it helps

What factors lead people to criticize their society rather than simply accept it?

Repression experienced by a minority often leads to protest. Without sufficient resolution of the dispute, a social criticism can be formulated, often covered by political groups (political monopoly). For protesting people within a social movement, it is often frustrating to experience failure of the movement and its own agenda.

The positivism dispute between critical rationalism, e.g. between Karl Popper and the Frankfurt School, is the academic form of the same discrepancy. This dispute deals with the question of whether research in the social sciences should be "neutral" or consciously adopt a partisan view
