得主是美国唱作人、民谣歌手、墨客
鲍勃·迪伦(Bob Dylan)。
what?写歌的可以拿文学奖?
领导讲话稿是不是也有机会了?
诺奖的颁奖词是这么说他:
在伟大的美国歌曲传统中创造了新的诗意表达
不过也有人说:
他便是个三流歌手、二流作曲,
但是个一流制作
··· ···
实在,1990年法兰西文学院曾为鲍勃·迪伦颁发过“文学艺术精彩造诣奖”。而早在20年前的1996年,鲍勃·迪伦就曾在美国墨客艾伦·金斯伯格的大力举荐下入围过诺贝尔文学奖的提名,自那之后还曾数次被提名。2008年第92届普利策文学奖上,鲍勃·迪伦还得到过“特殊名誉奖”。
既然你以为的“民谣老炮”实在早便是“文学老炮”了,那他的歌词是否真的那么直达民气呢?北青菌(微信ID:beijingqingnianbao)为大家找到了几首鲍勃·迪伦的歌词,而且是评价最高的那几首,你来读读看,是否实至名归?
