Open Seminar; Ghettos and Peripheries:From th Iberian Hinge to an UnhingedReality
Credits: 3
Grad Meth: Reg, Aud, S-F
This seminar explores the poetic topology of Iberia from the perspective of marginal(ized) cultures in a multifaceted contemporary context. While the Spanish background is ever present, the focus is on Basque, Catalan, Galician, Calo, Sefardi, and hood hubs with their new migratorypat terns. Because the landscape is so vast, the first iteration will focus on pairs of poets speaking in closely related language(s) and about comparable quests: Cunqueiro, Aresti, Margarit, Camaron as contrasted with Yolanda Castano, Bernardo Atxaga, Mireia Calafell, or Maria Terremoto.
