We shall be studying the reception of different mythologies – both ancient (biblical, Greek, Celtic, Egyptian) and modern (myths in the European and American traditions) – in the imaginary of Bob Dylan, as well as the mythological elements in the songwriting and mythopoiesis of the artist. In short, our aim is to examine the workings of Dylan’s mythological manufacture.
