  • The Impact of Allen Ginsberg's Howl on American Counterculture
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Croatian Digital Thesis Repository UNIVERSITY OF RIJEKA FACULTY OF HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL SCIENCES DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH Vlatka Makovec The Impact of Allen Ginsberg’s Howl on American Counterculture Representatives: Bob Dylan and Patti Smith Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the M.A.in English Language and Literature and Italian language and literature at the University of Rijeka Supervisor: Sintija Čuljat, PhD Co-supervisor: Carlo Martinez, PhD Rijeka, July 2017 ABSTRACT This thesis sets out to explore the influence exerted by Allen Ginsberg’s poem Howl on the poetics of Bob Dylan and Patti Smith. In particular, it will elaborate how some elements of Howl, be it the form or the theme, can be found in lyrics of Bob Dylan’s and Patti Smith’s songs. Along with Jack Kerouac’s On the Road and William Seward Burroughs’ Naked Lunch, Ginsberg’s poem is considered as one of the seminal texts of the Beat generation. Their works exemplify the same traits, such as the rejection of the standard narrative values and materialism, explicit descriptions of the human condition, the pursuit of happiness and peace through the use of drugs, sexual liberation and the study of Eastern religions. All the aforementioned works were clearly ahead of their time which got them labeled as inappropriate. Moreover, after their publications, Naked Lunch and Howl had to stand trials because they were deemed obscene. Like most of the works written by the beat writers, with its descriptions Howl was pushing the boundaries of freedom of expression and paved the path to its successors who continued to explore the themes elaborated in Howl.

  • Covid 19 Fairy Tales
    COVID 19 FAIRY TALES Justine C.,TL Once upon a time, in a city hidden in the depths of a forest, was born an evil creature who killed anyone who was in contact with it. This creature reproduced, and within a few months, the creature arrived in my kingdom. After a few weeks, cases started to heal thanks to the hard work of fairies and magicians, but the more the days passed, the more dead there were. The fairy palace was getting more and more sick. And even fairies were starting to get sick. As a precaution, the queen of the kingdom decided to confine the inhabitants. The geniuses continued to give elven lessons, pupils of the kingdom, thanks to their wonderful lamp. At the beginning of this confinement, the elves had a workload similar to that which they normally had, but the more time passed and the more certain geniuses sent work. After 8 weeks spent in confinement, the queen announced a deconfinement. The little elves could go back to study, but the older ones continued to stay at home. The fairies and the magicians were exhausted. after a month, the creature disappeared thanks to the courage of the hunters of evil creature. Maïa S., 210 Once upon a time, far from all preoccupations, a multitude of animals lived in a large meadow. They lived peacefully away from the evil witch who lived on the other side of the river in the dark forest. This witch named Corona had once lived with other animals, but, wanting to lead all the animals of the plain, the thirst for power transformed her into a wicked witch.
