Harvard University is soon to offer the course ‘Taylor Swift And Her World’ The course’s description says, “Today she’s (Taylor Swift) the most recognizable country or formerly country? or pop artist in North America, if not the world: her songwriting takes in half a dozen genres, and her economic impact changes cities,” the course description for “English 183ts. Taylor Swift and Her World” stated.
The website also described what the course will offer, as it said it will teach how to study her fan culture and delve into her celebrity culture, learning more about her adolescence, adulthood, and appropriation. The website also states the course will teach how to think about “white texts, Southern texts, transatlantic texts, and queer subtexts.”
Stephanie Burt will be the course instructor, as she states the course will offer students more than just writing about their favourite tracks of the artist. In an interview, Burt said, “The singer’s transition from country to pop music will be studied as it relates to broader political shifts in the country.”
Not just Harvard but the University of Florida will also include Taylor Swift in one of its courses on musical storytelling. However, the course will not just have Taylor Swift but will include many other iconic musical names such as Dolly Parton, Aretha Franklin, and Billie Holiday along with Swift in the course’s study material.
One of the most popular music schools, Berklee College Of Music, is also covering Swift’s songwriting techniques in its course for aspiring songwriters to prepare better in writing their own songs.
Belgium Ghent University is also offering a course centred around Swift and her contributions to art and culture on a large scale.
