"The Philosophy of Modern Song", which will be released on November 8 in the United States, will be his first work since "Chronicles, volume 1", published in 2004.
It will be published in France by Fayard editions.
The folk star began writing in 2010 and his new work includes, says his publisher, more than 60 texts, including artists such as Hank Williams and Nina Simone, and the art of composing texts and melodies.
"The publication of Bob Dylan's brilliant, kaleidoscopic work will be a global tribute to song by one of the greatest artists of our time," Simon and Schuster publishing boss Jonathan Karp said in a statement.
"+ The Philosophy of Modern Song + could only have been written by Bob Dylan", he continues.
"Her voice is unique, and her work carries her deep appreciation and understanding of the songs, the people who create them, and what it means to all of us."
Bob Dylan, who appeared on the New York scene in the early 1960s, has since sold more than 125 million albums around the world - and, at 80, continues his concerts with a current tour which is due to continue until in 2024.
He had released his critically acclaimed 39th studio album, "Rough and Rowdy Ways", in 2020.
Robert Allen Zimmerman, alias Bob Dylan, was awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize in Literature "for having created new modes of poetic expression within the framework of the great tradition of American music."
