6:00-6:15 Opening remarks <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

by Czech Center New York, Ukrainian Institute of America, and the European Union Delegation to the United Nations<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6:15-7:00 Panel Discussion 1<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

„Contemporary Literature and Global Crises”<\/strong> \u2014 moderated by <\/strong><\/strong>Clarisse Rosaz Shariyf, Chief Program Officer, Literary Programming at PEN America<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, European writers write at a moment where instability looms and they are confronted with the human impact of global migration, the danger of the climate crisis, the long tail of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the devastating war in Ukraine. In this conversation, writers will discuss how they choose to speak to the current political moment in their work and reflect on how it may have affected their creative processes and approach to their craft. The panel will feature K\u00e4tlin Kaldmaa (EE), Anja Kampmann (DE), Andrey Kurkov (UA), Sana\u00e9 Lemoine (FR), and Kat Mustatea (RO).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7:00-7:20 Tribute to the poets Nat\u00e1lia Correia, Eug\u00e9nio de Andrade and M\u00e1rio Cesariny<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Performed by Pedro Henriques da Silva (PT)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7:30-8:15 Panel Discussion 2 <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

„The Past is Present”<\/strong> \u2014 moderated by Sabir Sultan, Associate Director, World Voices Festival and Literary Programs at PEN America<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the historian\u2019s work of excavating the past offers invaluable revelations about the current political landscape of Europe, writers employ literary imagination to create insights into who we are, what happened, and what comes next. In this conversation the speakers will reflect on how they sometimes mine the national archives, historical narratives, and collective memory in their practice as writers and storytellers. The panel will feature Anna Frajlich (PL), Lore Segal (AT), Laima Vinc\u0117 Sruoginis (LT), Kate\u0159ina Tu\u010dkov\u00e1 (CZ), and Kirmen Uribe (ES).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New York-based  Polish poet and writer Anna Frajlich <\/strong>will represent Poland with her The Ghost of Shakespeare. Collected essays<\/em><\/strong> published by Academic Studies Press, Boston in 2020 This volume collects the critical prose of award-winning writer Anna Frajlich. The Ghost of Shakespeare<\/em> takes its name from Frajlich\u2019s essay on Nobel Prize laureate Wis\u0142awa Szymborska, but informs her approach as a comparativist as she considers the work of major Polish writers of the twentieth century, including Zbigniew Herbert, Czes\u0142aw Mi\u0142osz, and Bruno Schulz. Frajlich\u2019s study of the Roman theme in Russian Symbolism owes its origins to her stay in the Eternal City, the second stop on her exile from Poland in 1969. The book concludes with autobiographical essays that describe her own exile and building her career as a scholar and poet.<\/p>\n\n\n

It will be an evening of cultural exchanges and conversations exploring the way history has shaped the current crises facing Europe and the power of literature to unearth the truths about how we live and understand the role of writers in times of war and political upheavals. \nEuropean Literature Night 2023 is presented by members of EUNIC New York cluster in collaboration with PEN America. The program will feature two panel discussions, moderated by Sabir Sultan, the Associate Director of the World Voices Festival and Literary Programs, and Clarisse Rosaz Shariyf, Chief Program Officer, Literary Programming, both at PEN America.\nThe 2023 lineup includes Kate\u0159ina Tu\u010dkov\u00e1 (Czech Republic), Anna Frajlich (Poland), Lore Segal (Austria), Sana\u00e9 Lemoine (France), Kirmen Uribe (Spain - Basque Country), Anja Kampmann (Germany), Andrey Kurkov (Ukraine), Kat Mustatea (Romania), K\u00e4tlin Kaldmaa (Estonia), and Laima Vinc\u0117 Sruoginis (Lithuania).

In this conversation, writers will discuss how they choose to speak to the current political moment in their work and reflect on how it may have affected their creative processes and approach to their craft.

In this conversation the speakers will reflect on how they sometimes mine the national archives, historical narratives, and collective memory in their practice as writers and storytellers. The panel will feature Anna Frajlich (PL), Lore Segal (AT), Laima Vinc\u0117 Sruoginis (LT), Kate\u0159ina Tu\u010dkov\u00e1 (CZ), and Kirmen Uribe (ES).\n8:20-9:20 Intimate Author Readings in Breakout Rooms\n9:20-9:30 Closing remarks9:30-10:00 Final gathering and reception 10:00 PM End of the event\nNew York-based Polish poet and writer Anna Frajlich will represent Poland with her The Ghost of Shakespeare. Collected essays published by Academic Studies Press, Boston in 2020 This volume collects the critical prose of award-winning writer Anna Frajlich. The Ghost of Shakespeare takes its name from Frajlich\u2019s essay on Nobel Prize laureate Wis\u0142awa Szymborska, but informs her approach as a comparativist as she considers the work of major Polish writers of the twentieth century, including Zbigniew Herbert, Czes\u0142aw Mi\u0142osz, and Bruno Schulz. Frajlich\u2019s study of the Roman theme in Russian Symbolism owes its origins to her stay in the Eternal City, the second stop on her exile from Poland in 1969. The book concludes with autobiographical essays that describe her own exile and building her career as a scholar and poet.\nAnna Frajlich (Senior Lecturer Emerita) taught Polish language and literature at Columbia University for over three decades. She is author of ten books of poetry and five bilingual editions (English, French, Italian, Spanish, Ukrainian). She received The Knight\u2019s Cross of the Order of Merit, awarded by the President of Poland. She is also the recipient of literary awards from Ko\u015bcielski Foundation, Turza\u0144ski Foundation, the Union of Polish Writers in Exile, and more.\nThis special evening is organized by the Czech Center New York and EUNIC New York with the collaboration of partnering cultural institutions and consulates: Austrian Cultural Forum New York, Cam\u014des Institute, Consulate General of Estonia in New York, German Consulate General New York, Goethe Institut New York, Lithuanian Cultural Institute, Polish Cultural Institute in New York, Romanian Cultural Institute, Etxepare Basque Institute (Delegation of the Basque Country in the United States), Consulate General of Portugal in New York, Ukrainian Institute of America, Villa Albertine, and the support of the European Union Delegation to the United Nations.\nAbout EUNIC New York\nEUNIC \u2013 European Union National Institutes for Culture \u2013 is the European network of organizations working in 90 countries worldwide through a network of 125 clusters and acting as a platform for promoting European values, sharing knowledge, building capacity amongst its members and partners, and engaging local partners in dialogue and common cultural projects.
