Episode 9: Women and Dylan

March 11, 2018 in Season 1

In honour of International Women's Day as well as Mothers Day, episode #9 of Definitely Dylan is dedicated to Women & Dylan.

On this occasion, Laura offers a different perspective on two of Dylan's most controversial songs.

The hour also features various ways in which women have received Dylan's work. In addition to hearing women sing Dylan, Laura has asked women who have written about Dylan their opinion on the male-dominated culture of Dylan studies. You can read Dr. Nina Goss, Dr. Anne Margaret Daniel, and Tara Zuk's answers in full here.

A correction: our twitter and instagram handle is of course @DefDylan!

Playlist:

  1. Diamonds and Rust - Joan Baez

  2. Just Like A Woman

  3. Sweetheart Like You

  4. I Shall Be Released - Nina Simone

  5. Just Like A Woman - Roberta Flack

“You walk into the room
 With your pencil in your hand
 You see somebody naked
 And you say, “Who is that man?”
 You try so hard
 But you don’t understand
 Just what you’ll say
 When you get home
 
 Because something is
“You walk into the room With your pencil in your hand You see somebody naked And you say, “Who is that man?” You try so hard But you don’t understand Just what you’ll say When you get home Because something is happening here But you don’t know what it is Do you, Mister Jones?” #bobdylan #definitelydylan
