The Beats and the Boom: A Conversation with Allen Ginsberg Exclusive to LIFE's World Wide Web site by Seth Goddard. Allen Ginsberg's influence on the literary culture and countercultures of America may continue forever. In 1943, while the baby boomers were still three years from conception, Ginsberg, William Burroughs and Jack Kerouac planted the seeds of the Beat Generation in New York City. Eleven years later, Ginsberg relocated to San Francisco and joined the Bay Area's burgeoning literary scene, producing such classic poems as "Howl" and "America." He proclaimed in the former: "I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving/hysterical naked." He asked in the latter: "America when will you be angelic?" During the '60s, Ginsberg participated in Ken Kesey's Acid Tests, joined fellow Beat poets Gary Snyder and Michael McClure to lead the crowd in chanting "OM" at the 1967 San Francisco Be-In, and was a key figure in the anti-war movement. In 1994, Ginsberg sold his letters, journals, photos, old tennis shoes, and snippets of his beard to Stanford University for $1 million. SG: Were the philosophies of the Beat Generation picked up or left behind by the baby boom generation?

Inoltre, Ginsberg form² un ponte ideale tra il movimento beat degli anni '50 e gli Hippy degli anni '60 , stringendo amicizia con Jack Kerouac Neal Cassady e Bob Dylan , tra gli altri.

DHARMA beat a Jack Kerouac website Allen Ginsberg by Attila Gyenis Allen Ginsberg, Poet-Laureate of the Beat Generation, passed away on April 5 at his home in New York City. The quickness of his death was unexpected. He had just been diagnosed the week before with a terminal liver ailment, but the doctors had told him that he had 3 to 6 months to live. Upon hearing the news he went back to his apartment to write more poems. One of his last poems was titled " Death and Fame ". He also spent the week calling his friends, asking if they were OK, asking them if they needed any money, and announcing to them that he was dying. One of the last people he would call was William Burroughs, his friend of over 50 years. Allen was born in 1926 and grew up in Patterson, New Jersey, right across the Hudson River from New York City. His father was a high school English teacher and a poet. His mother, Naomi, was diagnosed as a schizophrenic, and even though Ginsberg was only a child, it would often fall upon him to care for her. This provided him with a first-hand view of madness. He would write about this experience in his poem Kaddish He started attending Columbia University for the purpose of becoming a lawyer like his brother, but fell into friendships with Kerouac, Burroughs, and Cassady among others. It was these friendships that caused him to eventually pursue his calling as a poet. Ginsberg got caught up in all the sex, drugs, and creativity that the beat generation seemed to espouse and surround itself with.

Literary Kicks Visit the general discussion board or view list of boards Allen Ginsberg Louis Ginsberg was a published poet, a high school teacher and a moderate Jewish Socialist. His wife, Naomi, was a radical Communist and irrepressible nudist who went tragically insane in early adulthood. Somewhere between the two in temperament was the Ginsberg's second son, Irwin Allen, born on June 3, 1926. A shy and complicated child growing up in Paterson , New Jersey, Allen's home life was dominated by his mother's bizarre and frightening episodes. A severe paranoid, she often trusted young Allen when she was convinced the rest of the family and the world was plotting against her. As the sensitive boy tried to understand what was happening around him, he also had to struggle to comprehend what was happening inside him, because he was consumed by lust for other boys his age. He discovered the poetry of Walt Whitman (the original Beatnik) in high school, but despite his interest in poetry he followed his father's advice and began planning a career as a labor lawyer. This was what he had in mind when he began his freshman year at Columbia University , but he fell in with a crowd of wild souls there, including fellow students Lucien Carr and Jack Kerouac and non-student friends William S. Burroughs

16. Allen Ginsberg's FBI File Dangerous dossiers Exposing the secret war against America s greatest authors. http://www.writing.upenn.edu/~afilreis/50s/ginsberg-fbi.html

Allen Ginsberg's FBI file from Herbert Mitgang, Dangerous dossiers : exposing the secret war against America's greatest authors (New York : D.I. Fine, 1988) Allen Ginsberg, poet, social activist and member of the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters, also engaged the attention of the FBI recordkeepers. "I have a stack of documents three feet high," the . . . poet said, and showed me a sampling of them. He has devoted much of his time to challenging the government on issues of privacy and personal freedom - including sexual preference - and arousing his fellow writers to campaign for freedom of expression. Ginsberg recently told me that Pacifica Radio, the group of radio stations that airs public events, contemporary verse, drama and other literature, may no longer broadcast much of his poetry, including the well known Howl and Kaddish . Under the Reagan administration's policy of destroying the power to regulate of the regulatory agencies, the weakened Federal Communications Commission has carried out Attorney General Meese's diktat against "obscenity" and "indecency." The final report of the Meese Commission on Pornography is a legacy for book censors and book burners that could affect authors, editors and elements of the publishing community for a long time to come. Ginsberg said that some of the papers in his file come from related customs and Treasury Department investigative bureaus. His file crisscrosses those of other writers. "They include Leroi Jones, who was the victim of much more attack than people understand and, in that context, his anger is understandable," Ginsberg said. "Most people don't realize what he and other black literati have been through, assuming that all past injustices have been redressed or somehow disappeared out of mind. The waste remains, the waste remains and kills. The section on Tom Hayden in Newark intersects with Jones, since Jones was influenced by an FBI misinformation campaign to denounce Hayden as an [FBI] agent and drive him out of Newark. The section on Black United Front and Ann Arbor intersects with John Sinclair, poet director of Detroit Artists Workshop, a multiracial press that is one of my publishers."
