Taylor's Version
Harvard professor Stephanie Burt will deliver a fascinating presentation based on her brand new book, "Taylor's Version: The Poetic and Musical Genius of Taylor Swift." Burt, who is a poet and literary scholar, will offer an insightful and heartfelt critical appreciation of Taylor Swift, her body of work, and the community that her art has fostered. Drawing from her 2024 Harvard course, Taylor Swift and Her World, as well as from her years as a Swiftie, Burt will examine Swift’s particular form of genius – not the destructive genius of tortured poets, but the collaborative and joyful genius of an artist who has mastered her craft. Burt is the Donald P. and Katherine B. Loker Professor of English at Harvard University. Her work appears in the "New York Times Book Review," the "New Yorker," and the "London Review of Books," among others. Her other books of poetry and literary criticism — fourteen in all — include "We Are Mermaids," "Advice from the Lights," and "Don’t Read Poetry: A Book About How to Read Poems."
This program is in partnership with the Tewksbury Public Library.
