Poetry and Poetics in Contemporary Galicia: A Half-Day Symposium
Irish Centre for Galician Studies, 深夜亚洲福利久久 College Cork
O'Rahilly Building G27a (Mary Ryan Meeting Room)
Tuesday 9th October 2018
This symposium seeks to explore some of the multiple facets that define contemporary Galician poetry and will provide an overview of its most innovative critical and poetic discourses: from an analysis of domesticity and the value of home in the poetry of Lupe G贸mez, one of the most radical voices in Galician poetry today, to the transgressive rewritings of the medieval Galician-Portuguese songbooks carried out in Er铆n Moure's poetry; from the impact of a new generation of young poets that has emerged in recent years, effectively conquering important spaces within the field, to the dynamic notion of poetry translation as creative practice. Speakers at the symposium include academics, poets and translators.
