His family has a rich collection of books and makes friends with literary celebrities. His nanny was born a serf and often told him Russian folk stories and legends, which made him appreciate rich Russian since he was a child and became interested in folk creation.

18 1 1 year, Pushkin entered Huangcun School, a school for aristocratic children, and began his literary creation career at the age of 12. 18 15. In the senior high school entrance examination, he recited his own Memories of Huangcun, which showed his outstanding poetry writing ability, especially the beauty and exquisiteness of his poems. In his early poems, he imitated the romantic poets Bachu Skov and Zhukovsky, and learned the styles of French poets Andrei Che Nier 17 to 18. While studying in Huangcun Middle School, he was also influenced by the French Enlightenment and made friends with some security officers who later became party member in December. His thought of opposing czar's autocratic rule and pursuing freedom was initially formed.

Pushkin went to work in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Petersburg after graduation. During this period, he was deeply influenced by the December Party members and their thoughts on democracy and freedom. He joined the Green Light Society, a literary group associated with the secret organization of the December Party members, and wrote many poems against serfdom and eulogizing freedom, such as Ode to Freedom (18 17). To Cha Daieff (1818); Country, (18 19), 1820, Pushkin wrote a fairy tale narrative poem ruslan and lyudmila. The story is based on Russian folklore, and describes that ruslan, a knight, overcomes difficulties and obstacles and finally finds his bride, lyudmila. Pushkin used vivid folk language in his poems, which was different from classical poetry in content and form, and challenged the aristocratic traditional literature.

Pushkin's works aroused the anxiety of the czar government. 1820 was sent to work in southern Russia, which was actually a disguised exile. During this period, he had more frequent contacts with members of the1February Party and attended some secret meetings in The Decemberists. His thought of pursuing freedom is clearer and stronger. Pushkin has written famous works such as Short Sword (182 1), Prisoner (1822), To the Sea (1824), and also wrote a set of poems of the South, including Captives of the Caucasus. He also wrote many beautiful lyric poems: The Sun goes down (1820) and Prisoner and Short Sword (182 1), which expressed the poet's strong yearning for freedom.

He collected folk songs and stories, studied Russian history, and his thoughts became more and more mature, and his realistic tendency in his creation became more and more obvious. From 65438 to 0825, he completed the creation of Boris Godunov, the first realistic tragedy in Russian literary history.

1826, czar Nicholas I ascended the throne. In order to win people's hearts, Pushkin was recalled to Moscow, but he was still under the secret surveillance of the czar police. Pushkin did not change his attitude towards The Decemberists. He had illusions about the new czar, hoping that Nicholas I could pardon The Decemberists in exile in Siberia, but his illusions were quickly shattered, so he wrote a political lyric poem "To the Prisoner of Siberia" to express his loyalty to The Decemberists's ideal.

Robert Frost (1874— 1963) is an American poet. Born in California. My father died at the age of 1 1. His mother took him to Massachusetts, his hometown in New England. After graduating from high school, I studied at Harvard University for two years. Before and after this, I worked as a textile worker, a teacher, ran a farm and began to write poems. He roamed many places on foot and was known as "the peasant poet of New England". Frost/Kloc-began to write poems at the age of 0/6, and officially published his first poem at the age of 20. He worked hard and published more than 65,438+00 poems in his life, including North of Boston (65,438+0914), Mountains (65,438+0916) and New Hampshire (65,438). Frost's poems can be divided into two categories: lyric short poems and dramatic narrative poems, both of which are famous. Frost's lyric poems mainly describe nature and farmers, especially the scenery in New England and farmers in the north. These poems are vivid and appealing, and are welcomed by readers at all levels. His narrative poems are generally low-key, reflecting the dark side of the poet's thought and character. Frost's worldview is complicated. He thinks the world is a mixture of good and evil. Therefore, on the one hand, his poems describe the beauty of nature and its benefits to human beings, on the other hand, they also describe its destructive power and the misfortune and disaster it brings to human beings. One of the greatest features of Frost's poetic style is unpretentious and profound implication, which contains profound thoughts and philosophies in plain content and unpretentious poetry. This is not only Frost's artistic pursuit, but also the secret of his career success.

Frost's poems did not attract attention in America at first. 19 12 After his family moved to England, he continued to write poems, which were well received by some British and American poets Ezra? With Pound's support and encouragement, he published a collection of poems, The Will of Teenagers (19 13) and North of Boston (19 14), which were well received and attracted the attention of American poetry circles. 19 15 returned to the United States to run a farm in New Hampshire. 1924, 193 1, 1937, 1943 won the Pulitzer Prize four times, and worked as a teacher, resident poet and poetry consultant in many famous universities. In his later years, he was an unofficial poet laureate in the United States. On his 75th and 85th birthdays, the US Senate made a resolution to honor him. His poetry is similar to traditional poetry in form, but it is not as artificial as romantic and aesthetical poets. He does not pursue external beauty. His poems often begin with describing the natural scenery or customs of New England and gradually enter the field of philosophy. His poems are unpretentious, but subtle and intriguing. The famous poem "Birch Tree" wrote that most people always want to escape from reality, but in the end they have to come back to reality. "Repairing the Wall" wrote that there are many tangible and intangible walls in the world that are worthless. In addition to short lyric poems, he also has some dramatic long narrative poems, which describe the spiritual outlook of rural people in New England, and the tone is relatively low and quite distinctive. In terms of meter, Frost likes to use variations of traditional blank poems and sonnets, which has its own characteristics in rhythm.

Frost is often called an "alternative poet", which means that he is in a period of alternation between traditional poetry and modernist poetry. He and Eliot are also called the two centers of modern American poetry.

Frost has published more than ten books of poetry, including his famous collection North of Boston, as well as The Peak, New Hampshire, Xixi, The Tree of Witness, The glade and so on. His poetry style is unique, and he vividly and simply describes rural scenery and rural daily life with spoken poems. His poems are full of American local flavor, widely circulated and deeply loved by people.
