Abstract

Sitcoms such as Leave it to Beaver and The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet glorify the social structures and family values of the 1950s. However, two majors works of the period, however — Fahrenheit 451 and On the Road — radically represent a growing resentment towards traditional 1950s family values.
