They may be composites or even outright inventions7 but they play a critical role
in Dylan's narrative. The gun-toting Ray's romantically reactionary view of the
South and the Civil War is set against Dave Van Ronk's “Marxist view” that “it was
one big battle between two rival economic systems.” In Chronicles there's
scarcely more than a passing reference ..."
