Encounters with Polish Literature<\/strong> is a video series for anyone interested in literature and the culture of books and reading. Each month, host David A. Goldfarb<\/strong> will present a new topic in conversation with an expert on that author or book or movement in Polish literature. More about the Encounters with Polish Literature series<\/a><\/strong> and the timeline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our series on Polish-Ukrainian literary dialogue continues with this discussion of the work of Serhiy Zhadan (b. 1974), author of poetry and prose, and leader of the Kharkiv rock-poetry band, \u201cZhadan and the Dogs\u201d (\u0416\u0430\u0434\u0430\u043d \u0456 \u0441\u043e\u0431\u0430\u043a\u0438).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nominated by the Polish Academy of Sciences in 2022 for the Nobel Prize in Literature, Zhadan began publishing his poems in the mid-1990s and stories in the early 2000s, and is the winner of the Jan Michalski Prize for Literature (2014), the Angelus Prize (2015), and the EBRD Literature Prize (2022), among others. Inspired early on by the avantgardism of the interwar period, he began to think of himself as a wartime poet after the initial Russian incursion into Ukrainian territory in 2014, and has been very active in the war effort and relief efforts in Kharkiv since the Russian invasion of February 24, 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this episode we focus on Zhadan\u2019s poetry since 2014 collected in the anthology, A New Orthography<\/em>, translated by our guests, John Hennessy and Ostap Kin. We discuss the process of translating poetry as a team, and the challenges for a poet in the target language translating another poet in the source language. We look at what it means for Zhadan to be a \u201cwartime poet\u201d\u2014in his case chronicling the experiences of ordinary Ukrainians surviving as best they can\u2014and why poets are needed in wartime, a topic that will return in our upcoming episode on Czes\u0142aw Mi\u0142osz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
