Answer 1

Cool jazz by Miles Davis, Gerry Mulligan, Chico Hamilton and others was not used to support the Beat writers' readings of their work is a "false" statement.

Why is it called Beat writer?

A new generation of poets challenged the norms of traditional American life and literature in the 1940s and 1950s. They became known as the Beat Poets, a moniker that conjures up feelings of drowsiness, melancholy, the rhythm of music, and beatific spirituality.

Some characteristics of beat poets are-

• The goal of the Beat generation was to make poetry a representation of actual lived experience.
• In such Beat strongholds as the Coexistence Bagel Shop and Lawrence Ferlinghetti's City Lights bookstore in San Francisco, they read their work, occasionally to the sound of progressive jazz.
• To free poetry from academic preciosity, the verse was frequently erratic and freely strewn with profanities.
• Though the Beat movement's experimentation with form and social involvement persisted and had long-lasting impacts, the trend had started to fade by 1960.
• Several notable writers emerged from the movement, including Gary Snyder, Philip Whalen, Gregory Corso, and Ferlinghetti.
