Abstract
Robert Frost’s labor poems open a mysterious space where ‘spell’ or fantasy cannot be separable from labor or reality and rather holds a cooperative relationship with it as a way to overcome the modern dilemmatic situation often called ‘the waste land.’ Frost’s method for accomplishing human dream again in this waste land is differentiated from T. S. Eliot’s ‘the mythical method’ to impose “shape and a significance to the immense panorama of futility and anarchy” from outside. Frost’s famous line, “The fact is the sweetest dream that labor knows” can be said to represent the significance of new perceptional/experiential possibilities found in his labor poems. That is, only manual labor, which makes “our fingers rough,” is not sufficient to have some knowledge of or reach “the fact.” As Žižek says “through fantasy, we learn ‘how to desire,’” such mysterious acts of dreaming something as spell or fantasy are indispensable to complete human labor. The reason labor needs or should know spell or fantasy is that there is something in nature too elusive to touch or name. Therefore human labor needs to admit its limitation and leave a space for dreaming something inexplicable, because anything human do to the facts falsifies them. In other words, art or human labor should be not transforming the fact but “happening of the truth,” and man should form things not with one’s own will or interests but “in accordance with the laws of beauty.”
