Abstract EN
Allen Ginsberg's poem Howl is widely perceived to have initiated not only Ginsberg's career as a poet, but also a new literary movement in the United States.
The current research paper is going to investigate the key role Ginsberg played in this poem, in particular, and throughout his literary journey in general in changing the American literary scene.
Howl is without a doubt Ginsberg's greatest and most influential poem.
It is an inspirational poem that prefigured the rise of the American Beat Movement, the movement of counterculture, and envisioned much of the future of America.
This poem by Ginsberg is said to have gained its unmatched status due to both its artistic uniqueness as well as its socio-political engagement.
In terms of its artistic formation, the poem exhibits individually typical narrative and story-telling standards and material.
In its socio-political context, the poem richly offers unequivocal accounts of the conditions of man more particularly the American man and his quest for concord and contentment via addiction to drugs, desire and search for sexual choices.
