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

English

denpristay [2]3 years ago

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

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

he theme of a story is what the author is trying to convey — in other words, the central idea of the story. Short stories often have just one theme, whereas novels usually have multiple themes. The theme of a story is woven all the way through the story, and the characters' actions, interactions, and motivations all reflect the story's theme.

But don't confuse theme with the story's plot or moral. The plot is simply what happens in the story and the order of the story's events, and the moral is the lesson that the writer wants the main character (and by extension, you) to learn from the story. Each of these serves the overall theme of the story. That is, the events of the story illustrate the theme, and the lesson that you learn relates directly to the theme.

So when you're trying to recognize the theme of a story, ask yourself what the author is trying to convey through the characters and events of the story. For instance, in The Catcher in the Rye, Holden Caulfield's actions are motivated by his not wanting to grow up, so one of the main themes of this novel is the preservation of innocence.
