Frye's work helped to reinterpret the works of which poet?

  • Emily Dickinson

  • Walt Whitman

  • William Blake

  • Robert Frost

Answer

William Blake's works were reinterpreted through the lens of Northrop Frye's influential literary criticism. Frye's groundbreaking theories on archetypes, myths, and symbols provided a framework for understanding Blake's complex and often enigmatic poetry. Frye argued that Blake's works were not simply personal expressions but rather part of a larger cultural and literary tradition.
