Tragic Seasons: Human Affections in Shakespeare’s King Lear and Frost’s Poems

Our critical, creative and imaginative continuities open academic avenues yet to be explored when the British playwright, William Shakespeare and American poet, Robert Frost are thematically paralleled to subtly accentuate existential terrains in a comparative study.This juxtaposition critically fuses Shakespeare's metaphorical potential with Frost's everyday vocabulary to examine the literary dialogues in the present.It examines the tragic depth and emotional resonance to unravel the multidimensionality and plurality of thought.The paper positions elusive and transcendent potential of Shakespeare's performative craft alongside the translated and cognitive potential in the quaint awareness of Frost's discomforting and solitary endeavours.When seen in unison, the mundane is negotiated into achieving universalized expressions of creative and critical deliberations on spectrums of human emotions and nature's witnessing of these confluences of ideas.The paper traces the poetic negotiation of complexities of human emotions and the transience of temporal shifts to establish how elemental hues come closer at representing external conflicts and inner turmoils.Their tragic depth reveals a continuum of poetic deliberation that questions, analyses and articulates enduring truths and fleeting intersections of life.In exploring this academic horizon, we simultaneously establish poetry as central to understanding solitary experiences and shared existential beingness.
