EMMANUEL REYMOND
(Université Paris 8 – Vincennes-St. Denis)
“Receptions of Poetry:
Contemporary circulation
between France and Norway”
THE LECTURE WILL BE GIVEN IN ENGLISH
Abstract:
During the last 20 years, the most contemporary practises in French poetry have received an important echo in Norway, thanks to the development of the publishing system, the organisation of events, such as international festivals (particularly in Bergen), and an increasing, collective interest in what is happening in other linguistic areas at the same time.
This lecture will explore the relationship between French and Norwegian poetry today, its genealogy, the role of the actors involved (writers, translators, publishers), and the processes given as frames (digitalization, cultural funding).
Emmanuel Reymond is trained within Comparative Literature, French, Anglo-American and Norwegian/Scandinavian Literatures, and is as well active within Digital Culture. He is also a music critic.
He presentes his open, public lecture on Tuesday 5th April. During the same week, he will on Thursday 7th April also teach in regular, ongoing courses offered at Dikult, Allv, and Noli. For his teaching schedule on Thursday 7th April, see 'Links' in sidebar to the right.
