Date 1999-05
Year graduated 1999
Description This paper analyzes the literary relationship between Jack Kerouac, a French-American beat writer of the 1950s, and Bob Dylan, the famous poet-singer of the 1960s. Though the two were not originally part of the same intellectual group, much of their writing promotes similar themes, images, and philosophies. The paper focuses on their careers up to the late '60s, for at this point, Kerouac stopped writing, and then died, and Dylan moved away from the protest songs.
