The Philosophy of Modern Song. We're going to take the title of Bob Dylan's recent book seriously and try to read between the lines: What is the philosophy here? What’s modern about it? Is there a code for living the good life embedded within? We’ll be calling on the writing of Father Richard Rohr for help. He’s a man of faith, myth, contemplation, and action whose work gives a parallel lay to Dylan’s philosophy of modern song. He, Dylan, is also a man of faith, myth, contemplation, and action. We’re going to see where these teachers and The Philosophy of Modern Song lead us.
