Navigating Reality vs. Fantasy in Taylor Swift’s Songwriting (webinar)

When a new Taylor Swift album drops, no topic is more hotly debated than who each song is about. Underneath that debate is an even more challenging set of questions: are Taylor’s songs autobiographical? Can we truly map her lyrics onto the people and events in her life? Do you have to know Taylor’s social circle to appreciate her music? 

In this talk, we will break down why people think that Taylor’s music is closely based on her life and relationships, what’s at stake in assuming her writing is truly autobiographical, and how to make sense of her songs when your Easter egg rabbit holes leave you more confused than when you started. 

We are grateful to welcome back Dr. Catherine Fairfield, Visiting Teaching Professor in English, to lead us in this unique and thought-provoking discussion!
