Session Submission Type: Roundtable

Brief Description

This is a conversation with one of the most prominent Serbian authors: an award-winning poet, playwright, screenplay writer, and professor, Milena Marković. Conceptualized as a round table, apart from Milena Marković herself, this conversation will involve two literary critics, as well as translators of her poetry into English language. The conversation will, among other themes, include aspects of her poetics, her attitudes towards Serbian politics of the past few decades, her personal experiences as a woman writer, the sources of her inspiration, the place of her oeuvre within Serbian and European canon. In addition to the dialogue about her prolific and widely acclaimed work, Milena Marković agreed to share some of her current manuscripts in progress.
