"How does Frost use the world of dreams compared to the world of experience?"
If there is anyone reading this who doesn't know who Frost is, here's one of his shorter poems:
I'm going to clean out the pasture spring;
I'll only stop to rake the leaves away
(And wait to watch the water clear, I may):
I shan't be gone long - You come too.
I'm going out to fetch the little calf
That's standing by the mother. It's so young
It totters when she licks it with her tongue.
I shan't be gone long - You come too.
Why are we forced to study stuff like this? How the hell does it improve our understanding of English Literature?
Interpreting poetry is all about applying your own thoughts and feelings to a piece.
It's analysing your own emotions and reactions to a piece, to trigger some creative ideas of your own.
"Why do we study this crap" would appear that you're wasting your time doing English Lit.
But that's just me, I could be wrong.
