His first book, The Torrent and the Night Before, was privately printed at his own expense. His subsequent collections, The Children of the Night (1897) and The Town Down the River (1910), fared little better, but the publication of The Man Against the Sky (1916) brought him critical acclaim. In these early works his best poetic form was the dramatic lyric, as exemplified in the title poem of The Man Against the Sky, which affirms life’s meaning despite its profoundly dark side. During these years Robinson perfected the poetic form for which he became so well known: a structure based firmly on stanzas, skillful rhyming patterns, and a precise and natural diction, combined with a dramatic examination of the human condition. Among the best poems of this period are “Richard Cory,” “Miniver Cheevy,” “For a Dead Lady,” “Flammonde,” and “Eros Turannos.” Robinson broke with the tradition of late Romanticism and introduced the preoccupations and plain style of naturalism into American poetry. His work attracted the attention of President Theodore Roosevelt, who gave him a sinecure at the U.S. Customs House in New York (held from 1905 to 1909).]]> 2018-04-30 18:04:47 UTC https://padlet.com/juanpab_2371/sjcp4006k3nq/wish/256641351 juanpab_2371 https://padlet.com/juanpab_2371/sjcp4006k3nq/wish/256692616 Old man at the end of his life.]]> 2018-04-30 20:18:20 UTC https://padlet.com/juanpab_2371/sjcp4006k3nq/wish/256692616 juanpab_2371 https://padlet.com/juanpab_2371/sjcp4006k3nq/wish/256695028 For the poem it had an literary allusion.
