- Title
Guest Editorial: Dylan, Our Nobel Laureate.
- Authors
Batchelor, Bob
- Abstract
The author reflects on musician Bob Dylan being awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize for Literature and discusses its impact on popular culture studies. He suggests that Dylan's influence on popular music has transformed the art form into something similar to storytelling and goes on to praise Dylan's ability to examine the complexities of modern life. Dylan's ambiguous and largely unknown private persona is also discussed.
