In my opinion, Dylan still managed to do quite a rare thing. It is a world practice when any folk basis, in this case country-folk basis, is displayed in the international plane and becomes already world language. He influenced the text description of many of his contemporaries from the same rock music. He managed with his originally quite Americanized and quite localized so the last to move across borders for many decades to exist as a world author in music. This thing is not common. If his songs are performed for five decades, including by other authors, it is possible that this can be considered valuable poetry.
It is no wonder Bob Dylan seven time winner of the "Grammy". Five of his songs are included in Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Also for one of his works, he received "Academy Awards" and "Golden Globe Award". According to a survey conducted by Rolling Stone magazine, Dylan was recognized as the second most important performer in rock music after the Beatles.
