Resumen
This MA thesis aims to explore how Bob Dylan employs intertextuality in his work. By examining ten songs that span his early beginnings in Greenwich Village to his becoming the recipient of the Nobel Prize, influences that include such disparate figures as Allen Ginsberg, Arthur Rimbaud, homer, Ovid and Virgil are detailed. The thesis is divided into three main sections. First, Dylan’s emergence as a folk singer with his so-called protest songs in the early 1960s; second, his conversion to Evangelism in the 1970s and the influence of Christianity; and third, the period encompassing the turn of century when he drew upon Greco-Roman founts. My hypothesis is that Dylan’s use of sources from other authors is a way of enriching his work and follows a time-honoured tradition of borrowing rather than mere plagiarism or simple appropriation.
