Title: A Man of Our Times?
Description: The paper, presented by George W. Dawson at the Sphex Club, delves into the life of Robert Frost, emphasizing the profound impact of three key women on his life and poetic works. It explores Frost's formative years, his struggles with education and financial stability, his complex family dynamics, and his tenure at prestigious institutions despite no formal degree. The narrative reveals Frost as a man marked by fame yet driven by personal insecurities and a quest for public validation, ultimately questioning whether Frost was truly "A Man for Our Times."
