Bob Dylan: Prophet Without God
December 10, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm
Jeffrey Green, Political Scientist
University of Pennsylvania
Bob Dylan isn’t just a brilliant songwriter but also a modern-day prophet. So argues Jeffrey Green in his forthcoming book, Bob Dylan: Prophet Without God. Dylan is not a conventional prophet of salvation, explains Green, the director of Penn’s Andrea Mitchell Center for the Study of Democracy. But he speaks to ideals that have animated earlier prophets, including social justice, individual freedom, and adherence to God. The songwriter breaks from tradition by testifying to the conflicts among those ideals.
