[Broadside]: "Howl" in the Classroom
New York: Thomas Y. Crowell(?), 1961.
Sold
Unbound. Broadside. Measuring 9" x 12" Old, neat folds, perhaps as issued, near fine. Printed in four columns, an assessment of Ginsberg's then controversial poem *Howl* by a professor at Hofstra College, addressing the excesses of the poem, but ultimately finding it worthy of study. The broadside seems to have been necessitated by the controversy related to the publication of the anthology *American Poetry* edited by Karl Shapiro and published by Crowell. *OCLC* locates a single copy (Brown University).
