Language and Literature teachers seeking to analyse popular music through literary theory and to connect canonical literary movements with contemporary and modern cultural texts
This course aims to examine Bob Dylan’s work through the lens of literary movements such as the Beat Generation, Modernism and American folk traditions. Participants will analyse how Dylan constructs voice, identity and social critique in his lyrics, and how these elements resonate with broader literary and cultural discourses. The course encourages teachers to rethink the literary canon by including song lyrics as texts that articulate resistance, subjectivity and historical consciousness.
• The Beat Generation and American counterculture: literature as protest and self-expression.
• Modernist fragmentation, symbolism and ambiguity in Dylan’s lyrics.
• The speaking voice: persona, mask and authorship in poetry and song.
• Intersections between folk tradition, oral storytelling and written literature.
• Cultural and historical contexts shaping Dylan’s songwriting.
Workshop presentation combined with group textual analysis. Comparative reading of song lyrics and literary excerpts. Small-group discussion to explore interpretative possibilities and classroom applications. Collaborative reflection on how literary theory can illuminate popular music and vice versa.
