Music And Literature: Reciprocal Tools For Analysis, Creation, Performance, And Education, Lily Rutledge '23
Honor Scholar Theses
Through research, written analysis, and live performance, this thesis will explore the different ways music and literature overlap and inform one another, drawing primarily on the scholarship of intermediality and the pedagogical approach of Arts Integration. As a student of both music and English literature, I am very attuned to the different ways these two forms of narrative already overlap.

I also frequently have noticed musical elements in prose and poetry …
