Rita Banerjee – Translating the World, Translating Ourselves (January 2024)

$5.00

Rita Banerjee’s opening talk explores why translation is such a vital aesthetic, psychic, and embodied craft tool for
creative writers. In translating our experiences and ourselves onto the page, we as writers become more aware of the metaphors we live by and can ask ourselves “What is the story behind my story, essay, or poem?” Some authors studied in the talk include Basho, Agyeya, Allen Ginsberg, Elizabeth Bishop, Rudyard Kipling, James Baldwin, Yoko Tawada, and Jhumpa Lahiri.
