As a component of our respective individual Honors theses, for the first ten weeks of the Spring 2012 semester fellow graduating senior Marc Keith and I co-taught a one credit hour Honors Colloquium on the music, lyrics and historical context of Bob Dylan. While the literary influences, historical context and stylistic development of Dylan's lyrics were a primary focus of our analysis, the classroom format allowed us access to all the media through which Dylan's art is appreciated. Though teaching the class itself was the primary component of the project, I provide in this binder the course syllabus, written and developed by Marc and I. Also included is an extensive week-to-week reflection of my experience teaching fellow students.Honors Co...
