On March 23, 1995, Allen Ginsberg was invited by Dr. Eric Wurmser and Dr. Gail Holian, Professor of English, to conduct a master class for the Georgian Court students enrolled in their British Romantics course. Since the class was open to the campus community, the session was held in the college’s Little Theatre. (Georgian Court College became Georgian Court University in 2004).
Jimmy Woo, Class of ’24, converted this talk from DVD to TH-cam as part of a Georgian Court University Summer Research grant with Dr. Paul Cappucci.
