Where Events Determine Everything: A Study of Frost’s Selected Poems Through Bakhtin's Concepts of 'Unfinalizability' and 'Dialogue'

Whether the actions or thought processes of the characters of any text can be fully and justifiably understood or interpreted either by its creator or reader is a question that constantly keeps us baffled. It is a general tendency among both writers and readers to evaluate the characters of a text as per prevalent ideas of their times, which tend to plummet both the beauty and mystical element of a text. It is where Bakhtin comes to our help. The article examines Frost's selected poems in light of Michael Bhaktin's ideas of “Unfinalizability” and "Dialogue." The article delves deep into both principles of Bakhtin, who categorically declared that no pre-existing ideas can define any event or character. Frost's poems are generally inconclusive since they defy all standard principles of psychology. The research article aspires to locate the proximity between Frost's poems and Bhaktin’s principles of “Unfinalizability” and "Dialogue". In a nutshell, the article deals with the idea that it is preponderant to interpret literature from preconceived notions, as events are independent of everything and have their origins and ends without having a necessary connection with any past event.
