Download or read book Sex Drugs and Rock n Roll written by Robert C. Cottrell and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-03-19 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sex, Drugs, and Rock ‘n Roll: The American Counterculture of the 1960s offers a unique examination of the cultural flowering that enveloped the United States during that early postwar decade. Robert C. Cottrell provides an enthralling view of the counterculture, beginning with an examination of American bohemia, the Lyrical Left of the pre-WWII era, and the hipsters. He delves into the Beats, before analyzing the counterculture that emerged on both the East and West coasts, but soon cropped up in the American heartland as well. Cottrell delivers something of a collective biography, through an exploration of the antics of seminal countercultural figures Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, Timothy Leary, and Ken Kesey. Cottrell also presents fascinating chapters covering “the magic elixir of sex,” rock ‘n roll, the underground press, Haight-Ashbury, the literature that garnered the attention of many in the counterculture, Monterey Pop, the Summer of Love, the Death of Hippie, the March on the Pentagon, communes, Yippies, Weatherman, Woodstock, the Manson family, the women’s movement, and the decade’s legacies.

Download or read book The Hippies and American Values written by Timothy A. Miller and published by Univ. of Tennessee Press. This book was released on 2012-01-02 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Turn on, tune in, drop out,” Timothy Leary advised young people in the 1960s. And many did, creating a counterculture built on drugs, rock music, sexual liberation, and communal living. The hippies preached free love, promoted flower power, and cautioned against trusting anyone over thirty. Eschewing money, materialism, and politics, they repudiated the mainstream values of the times. Along the way, these counterculturists created a lasting legacy and inspired long-lasting social changes. The Hippies and American Values uses an innovative approach to exploring the tenets of the counterculture movement. Rather than relying on interviews conducted years after the fact, Timothy Miller uses “underground” newspapers published at the time to provide a full and in-depth exploration. This reliance on primary sources brings an immediacy and vibrancy rarely seen in other studies of the period. Miller focuses primarily on the cultural revolutionaries rather than on the political radicals of the New Left. It examines the hippies’ ethics of dope, sex, rock, community, and cultural opposition and surveys their effects on current American values. Filled with illustrations from alternative publications, along with posters, cartoons, and photographs, The Hippies and American Values provides a graphic look at America in the 1960s. This second edition features a new introduction and a thoroughly updated, well-documented text. Highly readable and engaging, this volume brings deep insight to the counterculture movement and the ways it changed America. The first edition became a widely used course-adoption favorite, and scholars and students of the 1960s will welcome the second edition of this thought-provoking book.

This book was released on 2008-07-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK You might wonder under what contact I had with the Counter Cultural Revolution. One of them was in my role as a school teacher. Previous to the Counter Cultural Revolution I taught in an ultra conservative school. To show just how conservative this school was imagine a modern school with separate women ad men faculty rooms. In the men's faculty room was a shoe shine kit to be used by the male teachers. After being observed by the principal I awaited with dread his comments on my teaching. What he said was, "Your window shades are not level." As for discipline, a major infraction of the rules was joyriding in the school elevator and the use of words "damn" or "hell" was cause to get the student some very nasty looks. Well, I guess you get the idea. Now picture the same school after the arrival of the Counter Cultural Revolution. Everything was done to please the kids. In fact, they took away the teachers' dining room and used it for a playroom for them with pinball machines, boom boxes, pool tables, etc. To provide for a teachers' lunchroom, they built a crude cinder block enclosure which the teachers labeled the "Hanoi Hilton." The drab green halls became psychedelic with each hall glaring out at the passerby with such colors as purple, yellow, red, etc. Speaking of halls, it was not unknown to see students skateboarding in them while classes were in session. Passing a class in session, it was not unusual to see the desks in disarray with students lounging on the window sill and the teacher trying listlessly to teach. And if you looked out the right window, you could see drug dealers in the parking lot. Add to this the mini skirts, weird haircuts, and enough jewelry to make an elephant buckle. Need I mention the language? Oh, yes, I remember the Counter Cultural Revolution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Senator John F. Kennedy's 1960 presidential victory signaled a time of renewed hope and opportunity amid a bleak landscape of international tension. Within a few short years, however, Americans would find themselves coping with his untimely death, and fiercely divided over America's role in growing battles, both at home and abroad. A decade that many hoped would bring peace and prosperity began to morph into one of the most complex reactionary periods in history, with popular culture shifting and subverting the status quo in ways that would forever influence fashion, modern thought, philosophy, politics, and art. This volume focuses on the background, history, and effects of the American counterculture of the 1960s and features insights into public documents such as diaries, public records, and contemporary chronicles of the era.
