The Romantic Aesthetic on the Beat Poets
- This seminar aims to discuss and identify the similarities in aesthetics, define the movements, concepts, and features of the British Romantic period. The Beat Generation was highly influenced by such poets as Keats, Blake, Wordsworth, and Shelley namely for their own rebellion against the Enlightenment period. The Beat Poets, rebels in their own right, looked up to the British Romantic poets for their use of certain themes which were then adopted into their work such as individualism and emotional intensity, among others. Both of these periods saw poets who spoke out against society and then become witness to counterculture forming in front of their own eyes.
