  2. Background • First published in 1916, Republished in 1920 • Written in Mountain Interval • A new style for Frost, this poem was written about racism and history which was unusual for frost. • Written during the discrimination era.

  3. Title • A tragedy being forgotten • Bodies disappearing • Red representing the blood, Vanishing represents death of many people

  4. Interpretation • A man was caught snooping around a mill. He saw something that he was not suppose to. The Miller, who was of a different race, then decided to murder him. Eventually people had forgotten about this tragedy. Soon it was a story they could not believe had happened.

  5. Actual Meaning of the Poem • The red man is a Native American who is snooping around the Government, which is the Miller. • The Redman is snooping around in order to change the fact that they are being discriminated against regardless of how difficult it may be. • The last two stanzas represents if they went against the government, then they would be punished for their actions.

  6. Connotation • Symbolism: Lines 2-3; These two lines represent the fact that the Miller has more power than the Red man. They have more of the control • Foreshadowing: Lines 15-19; These lines show that something dangerous is about to happen between the Miller and John

  7. Continued • Simile: Line 22; comparing the water going through a narrow pathway just like frantic fish trying to get through a small path as well. It would be difficult for both. • Symbolism: Line 22; The Miller showed john how deathly afraid he would be for his life because he had snooped around when he should not have been.

  8. Attitude • Tone: antagonistic, cold, cynical, disrespectful, enraged, forceful, sinister, threatening, uncertain, unfriendly, unsympathetic • Mood: heartbroken, merciless, painful

  9. Shift • In the first stanza is the reflection of how the government had more power over the Native Americans. Then the second and third stanza explains the murder of John

  10. Theme • The theme for this poem is, people can be cruel as to how they treat others. • The government controls the people and has no sympathy for them.
