Reading Taiwan: Contemporary Literature and Film in a Global Context
- Date
- Friday 22 - Saturday 23 October, 2021
- Location
- Leeds and online
- Category
- Symposia
This year's symposium is generously supported by Spotlight Taiwan and the Taiwan Ministry of Culture, and in collaboration with the National Museum of Taiwan Literature and the Association for Taiwan Literature. This year, we're delighted to be welcoming speakers from Taiwan, Hong Kong, the US, and the UK, for two days of talks and roundtables which will examine the ways in which contemporary literature and film from Taiwan are part of global cultural flows, through translation, adaptation, and education.
With writers, translators, publishers, academics, and others involved in various aspects of the field, we'll be exploring the different ways in which Taiwan is being ‘read’ in global contexts, highlighting questions, challenges, and connections. How are contemporary writers and film-makers positioning themselves on a global stage? What is the journey from story to translation? How are Taiwan’s multiple cultural identities represented, translated, and read, in both literary and cinematic terms?
The symposium will make the most of the opportunities offered by a hybrid online and in-person format, with delegates in both Leeds and also participating virtually.
As ever with our annual symposia, we're aiming to provide a collegiate atmosphere and opportunity for real dialogue, so places for the two day event itself have been limited, but the online keynote lecture and author events are open to the public. Please find the Eventbrite links below. (Please note that if you're a symposium participant, you don't need to register on Eventbrite). Videos and keynotes will be available on our website afterwards.
