Résumé :	In his novel On the Road, Jack Kerouac shows the Beat Generation's spiritual dissent against the American society after the Second World War. The Beats base their critique of American materialism upon Oswald Spengler's apocalyptic vision. They see that the American culture is destined to collapse. Accordingly, The Beats introduce their new spiritual culture in terms of self-realization. On the Road depicts this new self-realization culture that is blessed by the marginal identities and the Eastern religions through the Cult of High experience that pave the way for the magic "IT". However, the Beat Generation's spirituality is trapped and restricted under the conception of apocalypse and the required creation of a new culture. Symbolically, the Beat Generation's culture enters an apocalyptic battle against the pre-millennial American culture. Jack Kerouac measures the extent to which the Beats' spiritual culture can stand against the American one.
