Episode 4 takes on the problem of nostalgia with help from Svetlana Boym (The Future of Nostalgia), Thomas Dodman (What Nostalgia Was: War, Empire, and the Time of a Deadly Emotion), Fredric Jameson (Postmodernism, or, the Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism), and Susan Stewart (On Longing).

I need to take a week off, but I will be back with episode 5 on April 30th. In the meantime, consider the following questions and let me know if you come to any conclusions: Does Taylor Swift have a style? And if so, what defines it?
