  Beat movement:


              The roots of the Beat movement go back to 1944 when Jack Kerouac,Allen Ginsberg and William Burroughs met at Columbia university in newyork.It was not until the 1950s that this writers would be recognize as the beats or as a generation of post world war-2 youths who's attitudes and lifestyle were far removed from typical American.
