“The whole Beat movement has become a worldwide cultural revolution, absolutely unprecedented. There’s never been anything like it before. Penetrating the Arab countries, which is really a hermetic society. And then their affiliation with the political activists that went on in the ’60s—although the Beats were originally nonpolitical, others who were political were really following the Beat movement to its logical conclusion.”

The next turning point came in 1948, when Ginsberg had a vision of the poet and artist William Blake reciting verses from his 1794 collection Songs of Experience, miraculously reaching Ginsberg from beyond the barrier separating death and life. The life-changing impact of this mystical experience affirmed his conviction that he was destined to be a spiritually attuned poet and a forceful advocate of the New Vision, the vaguely defined aesthetic agenda dreamed up by Ginsberg and his friends.

The 1950s had libidinal impulses as strong and plentiful as those of other decades. They were indirectly expressed in the public sphere, but they were impossible to miss. Hugh Hefner started a publishing revolution when his men’s magazine Playboy reached newsstands in 1953. The buxom Marilyn Monroe became a superstar, and second-tier blonde babes like Jayne Mansfield and Diana Dors immediately imitated her. Vladimir Nabokov’s scandalous Lolita reached the best-seller lists and the title of Metalious’s fornication-filled novel Peyton Place became a household phrase. People who had gasped at Alfred Kinsey’s report on Sexual Behavior in the Human Male in 1948 found even more surprises when Sexual Behavior in the Human Female appeared in 1953. Homosexuals are everywhere! People masturbate!

Members of the Beat Generation hoped that their radical rejection of consumerism, materialism, and regimentation would inspire others to purify their lives and souls as well.

Beat Generation, they took aim at the hypocrisy and taboos of their time—particularly those involving sex, race, and class—in such provocative works as Jack Kerouac’s On the Road (1957), Allen Ginsberg’s “Howl” (1956), and William S. Burroughs’s Naked Lunch (1959).
