Robert Frost’s poetry has triumphantly survived him, but most
readers today have not known him in one of his most significant
capacities—as teacher and lecturer. Here, collected for the first
time, are excerpts from forty-six of his presentations delivered to
students at more than thirty academic institutions over three
decades. Frost’s topics include: “What I think I’m doing when
I write a poem,” “Getting up things to say for yourself,”
“The future of the world,” “Fall in love at sight,” and
“Not freedom from, but freedom of.” Gathered by Edward Connery
Lathem, editor of The Poetry of Robert Frost, and introduced by
Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist David M. Shribman, Robert
Frost: Speaking on Campus reveals Frost in the setting of both
classroom and lecture hall, where he inspired thousands.
