    Extractions: Biographie Allen Ginsberg William S. Burroughs Avant la route, Son ouvrage majeur reste Sur la route (Editions Gallimard) Sur la Route La Beat Generation Allen Ginsberg Ginsberg ) et William Burroughs Le mot "beat" désignait depuis le XIXème siècle un vagabond du rail voyageant clandestinement à bord des wagons de marchandises. Peu à peu ce mot a pris le sens que lui ont donné les jazzmen noirs, "beat" en vint à signifier une manière de traverser la vie. Etre beat devint être foutu, à bout de souffle, exténué. En septembre 1957, "Sur La Route" trouva enfin un éditeur (Sur la route a été écrit entre 1949 et 1952). Du jour au lendemain, l'Amérique fut pleine de beatnicks, c'est-à-dire, dans l'image de la grande presse, d'adolescents déguisés en clochards crasseux, cheveux longs et nu-pieds, trouvant des extases mystiques au fond de piaules grouillantes de cancrelats.

    Extractions: Kerouac, Jack Jack Kerouac (born: March 12, 1922 - Lowell, Massachusetts; died: October 21, 1969 - St. Petersburg, Florida) was arguably the most important writer of what has become known as the "Beat Generation". Writing in an exuberant and free-flowing style he captured the excitement and holy joy of living outside the boring conservative mainstream of his time: the post-WWII United States. Kerouac's books were an extremely powerful influence on me as I was growing up, as they were for Van Morrison, all the way across the Atlantic in Ireland. Everone at "a certain age" - that stage when you're yearning to break free from conformity and set out into the wider world in search of adventure - should read some Kerouac. If you haven't yet: I envy you your first exposure to his books. The three essential titles, in my opinion, are the following (click on the links to be taken to Amazon.com, where you can purchase these if you wish): On the Road - perhaps his most famous book: the Bible of the Beat Generation. The Dharma Bums - Kerouac's first encounters with Buddhism, through his friendship with Gary Snyder (Japhy Ryder in the book), and

    jack kerouac, Father of the Beats , biography and works page.  
    http://ipoet.com/ARCHIVE/DEADBEAT/Kerouac/Jack.html
    
    Extractions: BIO: Son of French-Canadian immigrants, Jean Louis Kerouac was born March 12, 1922 in Massachusetts, USA. The World War II years saw him serving with the U.S.Merchant.Marine and attending Columbia.University , where he met Allen.Ginsberg and William Burroughs. In 1945 Jack found his muse and idol when he hooked up with Denver wildman, Neil Cassady. In 1948 Jack coined the term, "beat generation" - alluding to the Beatitudes and the holy teaching that the poor and downtrodden are favored by God. The 50's and early 60's were for Jack a blur of cross-country travel, drug and alcohol abuse, sex, jazz, and through it all, a continuous outpouring of genius onto the printed page. Best friend Cassady died in 1968, and alcoholism put an end to the journeys of Jack Kerouac a year later.

74. Jack Kerouac's Words Stand Up To Time
    An article by Nancy Pate from The Orlando Sentinel.  
    http://lubbockonline.com/news/091197/jack.htm
    
    Extractions: The Orlando Sentinel ''I was a young writer and I wanted to take off. ''Somewhere along the line I knew there'd be girls, visions, everything; somewhere along the line the pearl would be handed to me.'' So young Jack Kerouac wrote at the end of the first chapter of an autobiographical novel chronicling the cross-country travels of two young men, Dean Moriarty and Sal Paradise. Written in practically nonstop typing sessions in April of 1951, it was originally one single-spaced paragraph on a single roll of paper 120 feet long. Kerouac revised and retyped it over the next month, but it would be six years before the manuscript was published. But when ''On the Road'' made its debut 40 years ago this month, its sheer wind-in-your-hair, pedal-to-the-metal, epiphany-around-the-next-curve style changed not only its young author's life but also that of generations of restless readers who fell in love with the romance of the road. Kerouac was living in Orlando, in a College Park cottage with a tin-roofed porch, for much of 1957. But he went to New York for the publication of ''On the Road'' and to read the first review in The New York Times. Gilbert Millstein wrote that the publication of ''On the Road'' marked an ''historic occasion.'' He called it a ''major novel'' and ''the most beautifully executed, the clearest and the most important utterance yet made by the generation Kerouac himself named years ago as 'beat,' and whose principle avatar he is.''

    http://obits.com/kerouac.html
    
    Extractions: He was born into a French-Canadian family in Lowell, Massachusetts March 12, 1922. His father published a local newsletter, and Jack began writing about sports while still a child. After public and Catholic schooling, he earned a football scholarship to the Horace Mann prep school in New York, and, later, to Columbia University. A broken leg freshman year crippled his dreams of becoming a football star. He dropped out sophomore year to join the Merchant Marine, then the Navy, which later discharged him. Returning to New York, he married Edie Parker. The marriage lasted two months before Kerouac left, and moved in with Allen Ginsberg. It was then he began his wanderings, driving across the country with his good friend Neal Cassidy, who Kerouac believed a better writer than he. Early in the road trip adventures, Jack agreed to teach Neal to write if Neal would teach him to drive. Kerouac later published his chronicled journey in "The Town and the City." He planned another, written in a different style, one of spontaneous prose, to be called "On the Road." It was to be written in three weeks under a Benzedrine-induced rush. He typed the document on a single roll of paper 120 feet long, but couldn't get it published. The early 1950's continued similarly, with unpublished novels accumulating in a rucksack he dragged along on his journeys across the U.S.
