Aflevering Catherine Robb - Is Taylor Swift A Philosopher?

Taylor Swift is a cultural phenomenon and one of the most successful artists of her generation. Her influence is undeniable, but can we consider her to be a philosopher? In this episode, Bram Medelli and Bas Keemink talk to philosopher Catherine Robb about the value of Taylor's music, her fandom and even her connection to Aristotle. Catherine is teaching a public online course on the philosophy of Taylor Swift, that starts in September. Find more information and register for the course here.
