SUMMARY:Contemporary Jewish Women’s Writing in Germany and Austria – A ‘Minor’ Literature?
DESCRIPTION:This one-day workshop aims to probe whether the label and concept of a ‘minor literature’ (Deleuze/Guattari\, 1975) can be usefully applied to contemporary writing by female Jewish authors in Germany and Austria. The workshop will explore what the term ‘minor’ could mean and contribute when discussing a broad range of contemporary authors and their aesthetics and writing practices\, images of the self/the other inside and outside of their works\, forms of community building\, and their relationship with the broader literary field (i.e. the literary market). \nThis event includes a reading by Mirna Funk. The award-winning German-Jewish author will read from her novel “Winternähe” (2015). The novel was awarded the “Uwe Johnson prize” for emerging writers and nominated for the “aspekte literature prize”\, the “Klaus Michael Kühne prize” and the “Ulla Hahn prize” for “best debut novel”. Mirna Funk\, who is also known for her high-profile journalism on themes related to cultures of remembrance and Jewish culture in contemporary Germany\, will read in German. The discussion will be conducted in German and English. \nProgramme \nThe event is supported by the Centre for the Study of Contemporary Women’s Writing (CCWW). \n\nAdvanced Registration required. £15 standard │£10 students | Book here>>

SUMMARY:A New Language - a new life? Translingual literature by contemporary women writers
DESCRIPTION:This symposium will bring together scholars working on translingual women’s writing in the language fields of Italian\, French and German. We will explore the particular richness of texts produced by writers in languages that are not their mother tongues. Among the questions we will explore are the following: \n• Is translingual writing perceived by the authors in question as a liberation and a new beginning\, or as a requirement demanded by the literary market?\n• How does the particular attention to language required in translingual writing affect the text?\n• What are the distinctive literary and linguistic strategies employed in translingual writing?\n• Does writing in a foreign tongue go hand in hand with establishing a new identity?\n• What can translingual writing achieve that goes beyond the possibilities of texts produced by mother-tongue writers? \nThe symposium is conceived as a springboard for a larger international conference on women’s translingual writing\, which is being planned for 2019. It is part of the AHRC-funded Open World Research Initiative project ‘Cross-Language Dynamics – Reshaping Communities’\, generously supported by the Cassal Trust Fund and co-organised with the Centre for the Study of Contemporary Women’s Writing (CCWW). \nProgramme\n14.00 Welcome\n14.10 Anne Fleig (FU Berlin): New Language and Female Voice – Heteroglossia in the Writings of Özdamar and Tawada;\nMaria Cristina Seccia (Hull): Translingualism as Reparation in Shirin Ramzanali Fazel’s Nuvole sull’Equatore\nLoredana Polezzi (Cardiff): Sharing Spaces\, Translating Voices – Shirin Ramzanali Fazel and Compagnia delle Poete\n15.40 Tea / Coffee\n16.10 Godela Weiss-Sussex (IMLR\, London): Translingual Creativity and Belonging in Katja Petrowskaja’s Vielleicht Esther (2014)\nMary Gallagher (University College Dublin): Nancy Huston on Othering the Mother-Tongue\nAnna-Louise Milne (University of London Institute in Paris): Plural Subjectivities\, or ‘Writing With’ \nBook now >>\n\nThis event is generously supported by the Cassal Trust Fund.
