Swifties, time to rejoice! Singing and listening to Taylor Swift's songs is&nbsp;an old thing, now it's time to study Taylor Swift.&nbsp;After Stanford University introduced a course on Taylor&nbsp;earlier this year, a university in Belgium has now launched a Taylor Swift literature course.

Master's students who will be enrolling at the University of Gent (UGent), will have the option to choose a course titled English Literature: Taylor’s Version.&nbsp;British professor Elly McCausland, who is a big fan of Taylor, will teach the course.&nbsp;Talking about introducing Swift's chapter to the literature course, Elly&nbsp;said, that "enough books have already been written about Shakespeare and other dead white men."

"I want to show my students how much fun historical English literature can be," she said, as per the Brussels Times.&nbsp;

She also added, ''It is also important to study modern female stars."

"After all, sometimes students lose the sense of studying something useful and recognisable because it is so old. You need to learn how our history influences our modern literature."

The Lover singer has always drawn inspiration from classics&nbsp;literature for her songs, and this time her work will be featured and analysed alongside authors and iconic works like The Great Gatsby, Robert Frost, Emily Dickinson, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and Jane Eyre,&nbsp;Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, and Romeo and Juliet.

This may be the first Taylor Swift course in Europe, but Americans are no strangers to this. Earlier, this year, Stanford University introduced a new course titled, ‘The Last Great American Songwriter: Storytelling with Taylor Swift Through the Eras.’ However, before Stanford, in 2022, New York University’s Clive Davis Institute was the first to bring Taylor to the classroom as it introduced the first-ever course on the songwriter.&nbsp;
