Description
In this class we'll analyze the intricate songwriting skills of one of pop music's most influential artists. Students will explore the evolution of Taylor Swift's musical and lyrical style, from her country roots to her pop and indie-folk reinventions. Each week, the class will focus on a different song, examining its poetic devices, narrative techniques, and thematic elements to understand the depth and breadth of Swift's work as a modern-day poet and songwriter.
While we're diving deep into literary devices, this class is still a great fit for learners new to poetry analysis-- we'll take the time to review each literary device before discussing it's role in the given song!
