Essay from the year 2014 in the subject Literature - Modern Literature, course: BA in Languages, language: English, abstract: Many problems happen in family life due to the lack of communication between husband and wife. In the poem "Home Burial" by Robert Frost, the poet says that there is a distance between husband and wife because of their lack of understanding and the communication. By doing so, the author tries his best to give an idea about an ideal home. Human beings are always willing to live with happiness in their mind. For such kind of happiness, home is the most appropriate place for a person. That is why, there is a clear difference between the terms 'home' and 'house'. Home is a place where people live with feelings and emotions. House is also a place where people can live. However, the house is distant from feelings and emotions of the people. Using the central theme "home", Robert Frost composes a poem which implies how a man and woman struggle with some difficulties in their own home, after the burial of their child. Depicting the relationship between these two people as husband and wife who live under the same roof, Frost tells us how the relationship and living conditions within a home should be. Frost directly tells us the problematic nature of a house in his poem Home Burial and through that the poet indirectly tells us how a home should be.
