The Poetics of Translation - Workshop with Amy Lam
This workshop explores the art and challenge of translation as form, focusing on how language, culture, and meaning transform in the process. Drawing on Édouard Glissant's concept of Relation, participants will engage with experimental forms of poetic generation, emphasizing the idea that translation is not merely about fidelity but a process of creating connections across cultural and linguistic boundaries.
