The Features of a Nonconformist Generation

" ... young people who lived in the sixties are in
their middle ages now. This age group likes recalling
their youth. As my parents were also members of this
generation, they often told about those years."
(Introduction) One well-known feature of the beat
generation is music that penetrated the sixties.
Beside changes in pop music, political and social
changes determine this period. My assumption is that
these processes took place not side by side but they
crossed each other. Although this young,
nonconformist generation originated in Britain, the
arising mass culture carried new music, ideas and
lifestyle throughout the world. In this way English
started to become a global language. Therefore in the
last chapter with different lesson plans I
demonstrate how music and lyrics can be useful means
of teaching and learning the English language. This
book can serve as help for students who study about
British history, culture and sociology. I hope it can
also be enjoyable for people of the beat generation;
and for everybody who is eager to learn more about
this extraordinary period of human history."
