Rolf Dieter Brinkmann (1940, Vechta, Germany - 1975, London) was an important poet of German "Pop-Literatur", inspired by the American Beat Generation (Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg) and other American poets like William Carlos Williams and Frank O'Hara. His poetry is filled with references to popular culture, from tango to Hollywood films. Brinkmann was opposed to literature that neglects aesthetics in favour of politics. He was, nevertheless, also a political author as evidenced by social criticism found in most of his texts.
