"With essays that cover canonical Beat authors such as Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, and William Burroughs as well as less well-known figures like Kenneth Rexroth, Ed Sanders, and Diane di Prima, this volume focuses on the Beat movement's appropriation of the Greek and Latin classics as a formative element of their literary movement"-- Provided by publisher.
