“Mending Wall”
by Robert Frost
Something there is that doesn’t love a wall,
That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it,
And spills the upper boulders in the sun,
And makes gaps even two can pass abreast.
The work of hunters is another thing:
I have come after them and made repair
Where they have left not one stone on a stone,
But they would have the rabbit out of hiding,
To please the yelping dogs. The gaps I mean,
No one has seen them made or heard them made,
But at spring mending-time we find them there.
I let my neighbor know beyond the hill;
And on a day we meet to walk the line
And set the wall between us once again.
We keep the wall between us as we go.
To each the boulders that have fallen to each.
And some are loaves and some so nearly balls
We have to use a spell to make them balance:
“Stay where you are until our backs are turned!”
We wear our fingers rough with handling them.
Oh, just another kind of out-door game,
One on a side. It comes to little more:
There where it is we do not need the wall:
He is all pine and I am apple orchard.
My apple trees will never get across
And eat the cones under his pines, I tell him.
He only says, “Good fences make good neighbors.”
Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder
If I could put a notion in his head:
“Why do they make good neighbors? Isn’t it
Where there are cows?
But here there are no cows.
Before I built a wall I’d ask to know
What I was walling in or walling out,
And to whom I was like to give offence.
Something there is that doesn’t love a wall,
That wants it down.” I could say “Elves” to him,
But it’s not elves exactly, and I’d rather
He said it for himself. I see him there
Bringing a stone grasped firmly by the top
In each hand, like an old-stone savage armed.
He moves in darkness as it seems to me—
Not of woods only and the shade of trees.
He will not go behind his father’s saying,
And he likes having thought of it so well
He says again, “Good fences make good neighbors.”

If Romeo and Juliet Had Cell Phones

Misty Harris

NEWS ARTICLE



1 Romeo and Juliet are often cited as a tragedy that could have been averted with one cell phone call. But smug as we are in our technology, a Canadian sociologist says the Shakespearean tale was actually ahead of its time, with the star-crossed lovers’ romance acting as an allegory for the social network revolution.

2 In a new research paper, Barry Wellman points to Romeo and Juliet as one of the earliest examples of the shift from group-bound societies to networked individuals—a modern phenomenon that, with the saturation of mobile phones, has reinvented the way people interact.

3“The big thing about the social network revolution is that instead of living in tightly knit groups, people are crossing boundaries and connecting as individuals—and that’s basically the story of Romeo and Juliet,” said Wellman, professor of sociology and information at the University of Toronto.

4The problem with being ahead of your time, of course, is that technology needs to catch up.

5Wellman’s paper, published in the January issue of the journal Mobile Media & Communication, looks at the probable ways in which the couple’s love story would’ve changed had they had access to today’s tools—an exercise that simultaneously sheds light on mobile devices’ effect on modern life.

6“The big problems were that they couldn’t coordinate with each other, they couldn’t find each other, and they had a lot of miscommunication about each other,” said Wellman, co-author of Networked: The New Social Operating System. “Today, they would literally have each other in their pockets all the time. I know students who send one another secret (cell phone) vibrations just to let the other person know, ‘I’m thinking of you.”

7 Such micro-communication is enabled by the slim-down of mobile phones, from roughly 1 kilogram to about 140 grams1 (“they would easily fit into bodices and codpieces,”2 Wellman observes).

8Empowered by this technology, Romeo and Juliet likely would’ve used location-based apps to track each other’s whereabouts, text messaging to keep their communication private, and video chats to keep the spark alive.

9 In addition, Wellman speculates that their exchanges would’ve been subject to less scrutiny, as mobile phones eliminate the need to connect through a family gatekeeper.

10“In the past, everyone in the house would know when you got a phone call. Now, you can do this stuff more or less in private,” said Wellman, who adds that this shift is also evident in the ways people use their cell phones.

11“If you were riding on public transit 10 years ago, you’d hear people shouting at each other on their mobile phones. Now, they’re murmuring or they’re texting.”

12 In fact, Canadians send more than 274 million texts every day. And if Juliet “had kept insecurely texting Romeo,” Wellman believes the resulting social overload would have driven him away.

13 The sociologist ultimately concludes that the consequences of technology for Verona’s lovers would be the same as they are for modern society: mixed.

14“They’d still be alive,” said Wellman. “But they probably would’ve gotten tired of each other really quickly.”
