Radio, Politics, and Culture: BBC at 100
Dr. Jessica Berman's article "BBC at 100: a trusted
international news source, but it's important to remember whose values it
reflects" was published in The Conversation. Berman explores the sociopolitical history of the BBC and its relationship to British soft power. Berman writes:
"As the BBC turns 100 we should celebrate its extraordinary history as a
public service broadcaster bringing news and other programming to
audiences around the globe. In 2020-2021 the BBC
announced
that its World Service achieved its highest-ever audience, with an
average of close to 500 million listeners globally each week. The BBC
brings news to audiences in more than 40
languages, with newer additions like Igbo, Pidgin, and Yoruba
growing in strength each year.
. . . As we mark the BBC's centenary and celebrate the continuing achievements
of the World Service, we should remember how British soft power has
often guided its history and insist that it is able to operate
independently now and into the future."

Dr. Raphael Falco Publishes Article in The Conversation
Bob Dylan and Literary Culture
Dr. Raphael Falco's article "How Bob Dylan used the ancient practice of 'imitatio' to craft some of the most original songs of his time" was recently published in The Conversation. Falco argues:
"Over the course of six decades, Bob Dylan steadily brought together
popular music and poetic excellence. Yet the guardians of literary
culture have only rarely accepted Dylan’s legitimacy.
His 2016 Nobel Prize in Literature
undermined his outsider status, challenging scholars, fans, and critics
to think of Dylan as an integral part of international literary
heritage. My new book, “No One to Meet: Imitation and Originality in the Songs of Bob Dylan,” takes this challenge seriously and places Dylan within a literary tradition that extends all the way back to the ancients."
