quote:

Poetry, prose and now songwriting: Ghent University in Belgium is launching a new literature course dedicated to the literary merit of Taylor Swift’s discography.

Using Swift’s work as a springboard, we will explore, among other topics, literary feminism, ecocriticism, fan studies, and tropes such as the anti-hero. Swift’s enduring popularity stems, at least in part, from the heavily intertextual aspect of her work, and this course will dig deeper to explore its literary roots


This generation’s Lennon/McCartney

If I could do it over again I'd take it as an elective.

USC used to offer a course on 2PAC.. Well, a class on his poetry.

He has a bunch, this is the first one I saw.

quote:

All of my life I dreamed of meeting one with immense beauty, and once I found her I would charm her and she’d be mine forever I have found her and indeed she is all I wished for and more but she is not charmed nor intrigued. Then I think 2 myself “What can I offer her?” The tears warm my eyes and blur my vision. I stick 2 my stance of bravado and give her the same uninterested look she gave me. She was so beautiful But what can I offer her. – Tupac

Don't they also have "universal college education" paid for by the state?

When does Lizzo complain that Belgium is discriminating by only offering courses on white artists?

No matter what anyone ever says about her, she was super smart.

Never gave away the one thing that mattered and left it to the imagination unlike every other women in existence basically.

When I first saw the topic, thought it was going to be a marketing elective

At least she's white and a decent person for a role model. No tattoo's. Not sexually explicit in public. Even though I don't care for her music, it's someone for our young girls in America to look up to rather than Hippo.....I mean Lizzo!

I can’t afford rent! I got a fine arts degree and took a Taylor swift course.

This is why college degrees are becoming increasingly worthless

Minoring in Taylor Swift studies isnt much of a resume builder
