罗伯特·弗罗斯特诗歌蕴含的隐喻和象征

Metaphor and Symbolism in Robert Frost's Poetry

隐喻和象征是罗伯特·弗罗斯特诗歌的主要特点和魅力所在,采用巧妙的隐喻或象征手法,弗氏在其诗歌中表现了他对大自然和人类存在的理解和剖析。弗氏突破了常见的本体与喻体之间的习惯联系,把似乎毫无关联的两个具象联系到一起,通过隐喻揭示了似乎不同的事物的相同实质。他隐喻丰厚的诗歌名篇蕴含着深刻的哲学底蕴,在貌似平凡的描述中把大自然的景物与人类社会的常见现象整合贯通,使其诗歌的不同成分浑然一体,深刻揭示了人与自然的关系和人生选择的迷惘以及人类存在的真实状态。

Metaphor and symbolism are the major characteristics and charming features in Robert Frost＇ s poetry. Through the clever use of metaphorical and symbolic means in his poetry, Frost gives an incisive inter- pretation of Nature and human existence. Through the implicit or symbolic similarities, Frost makes break- throughs in the accepted relations between the tenor and the vehicle by integrating two seemingly irrelevant ob- jects, and exposes the same nature of seemingly irrelevant things. His poetic masterpieces rich in metaphorical implications have abundant philosophical connotations, and integrate the natural landscapes with the popular phenomena of human society in seemingly simple poetic description, thus making the different elements of his poetry an organic whole and revealing the relations between man and nature, the dilemmas of human choices as well as the truth of human existence.
