他数量宏大且仍在不断扩展的歌单也很符合要求。他最主要的影响在于,他用自己的方式向我们展示了诗歌的历史,从希腊人到赞美诗的作者,从莎士比亚时代的文豪到形式多样的美国传统等等:蓝调、乡村音乐、柏林,格什温和波特的美国歌集、民歌、早期摇滚乐。
Over time, Dylan has been a spiritual seeker—and his well-known excursions into various religious traditions, from evangelical Christianity to Chabad, are in his work as well—but his foundation is song, lyric combined with music, and the Nobel committee was right to discount the objections to that tradition as literature. Sappho and Homer would approve.
一直以来,迪伦都是精神的探求者,但他是用歌词结合音乐的形式表现出来的,他的作品当中包含了他从福音派基督教到哈巴德(犹太教极端正统派的最大支派)的探索历程。诺贝尔奖委员会力排众议,不以传统惯例定义文学的选择是正确的。莎孚(古代希腊的女诗人)和荷马(公元前9世纪前后的希腊诗人)也会为这一决定投赞成票。
去年,迪伦在MusiCares(一个帮助音乐家的慈善团体)领奖时曾说:
These songs of mine, they’re like mystery stories, the kind that Shakespeare saw when he was growing up. I think you could trace what I do back that far. They were on the fringes then, and I think they’re on the fringes now. And they sound like they’ve been on the hard ground.
