JIM MORRISON ALFRED EISENSTAEDT PROFESSIONAL
Morrison recorded his own poetry in a professional sound studio on two separate occasions. Volume II, The American Night, released in 1990, was also a success. The Lost Writings of Jim Morrison Volume I is titled Wilderness, and upon its release in 1988, became an instant New York Times Bestseller. These were the only writings published during Morrison’s lifetime. These two books were later combined into a single volume titled The Lords and The New Creatures. The New Creatures verses are more poetic in structure, feel and appearance. The Lords consists primarily of brief descriptions of places, people, events and Morrison’s thoughts on cinema. He self-published two separate volumes of his poetry in 1969, titled The Lords / Notes on Vision and The New Creatures.


At UCLA he studied the related fields of theater, film, and cinematography. Morrison began writing in earnest during his adolescence. Burroughs, Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, Louis Ferdinand Celine, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Charles Baudelaire, Molière, Franz Kafka, Albert Camus, Honoré de Balzac and Jean Cocteau, along with most of the French existentialist philosophers.

Some of his formative influences were Plutarch’s Parallel Lives and the works of the French Symbolist poet Arthur Rimbaud, whose style would later influence the form of Morrison’s short prose poems. He was influenced by Friedrich Nietzsche, whose views on aesthetics, morality, and the Apollonian and Dionysian duality would appear in his conversation, poetry and songs. A voracious reader from an early age, Morrison was particularly inspired by the writings of several philosophers and poets.
