Description
Ouvrage publié à l'occasion de l'exposition éponyme présentée au Centre Pompidou, Paris, du 22 juin au 3 octobre 2016.00La Beat Generation, mouvement littéraire et artistique apparu à la fin des années 1940 aux États-Unis, au lendemain de la Seconde Guerre mondiale et aux premiers jours de la guerre froide, scandalise l?Amérique puritaine et maccarthyste et préfigure la libération culturelle, sexuelle et le mode de vie de la jeunesse des années 1960. Rejetant le scientisme et les idéaux technologiques occidentaux, le racisme et l?homophobie, défendant une nouvelle éthique tribale et l?usage des psychotropes, il a directement inspiré les mouvements de mai 1968, l?opposition à la guerre du Vietnam, ou encore les hippies de Berkeley et de Woodstock.
