Abstract

FRYSZMAN, Noemia Davidovich. Against the father and the fatherland: Allen Ginsberg and his libertarian “Howl”. Ide (São Paulo) [online]. 2018, vol.40, n.66, pp.59-70. ISSN 0101-3106.

This article proposes to draw a panel of the beat generation, within its historical political, social and literary epoch, representing the period that composes the end of the 1950s and the decades of 1960/70 in the United States. The beats were transgressors of the pre-established social rules and of the norms that confined literature and poetry at the time. Allen Ginsberg's poem “Howl” was chose to illustrate the liberation of the choked “Howl” in the throat of United States of America, loosening the bonds that enslaved all kinds of diversity.

Keywords : Beat generation; Counterculture; Intolerance; Ginsberg.
