Course Description Definitions of 'authorship' and applications of the concept to various repertoires of modern and contemporary 'song'; historical, sociological, and aesthetic framing of the notion of 'songwriting'; poetic-musical analysis and comparative reading of compositions from the songbooks of some particularly representative authors from the French and Italian, North American and British, Brazilian and Spanish-American repertoires. The course will also address the problem of poetic-musical translation of foreign works, with specific but not exclusive reference to the respective songbooks of Georges Brassens, Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Violeta Parra, and Chico Buarque de Hollanda. At the end of the course, the students will be required to carry out the in-depth poetic-musical analysis - possibly including prosodic translation - of a composition of their choice (taken from one of the listed repertoires) to be expounded and discussed in the form of a seminar presentation (in the last lectures of the course) or a written term paper (to be handed into the lecturer at least one week in advance of the exam date).
