Summary
"Robert Frost's poetry has triumphantly survived him, but most readers today have not known him in one of his most significant capacities-as teacher and lecturer. Here, published for the first time, are excerpts from forty-six of his presentations, delivered at more than thirty academic institutions during a period spanning three decades. Frost's topics include, among others, "What I think I'm doing when I write a poem," "Getting up things to say for yourself" "The future of the world," "Fall in love at sight," and "Not freedom from, but freedom of.""--BOOK JACKET.
