A series of seminars organized by the OU’s Contemporary Cultures of Writing Research Group in collaboration with the Institute of English Studies, UL.
In the context of a Research Group (http://www.open.ac.uk/Arts/contemporary-cultures-of-writing/events.shtml) whose focus is on the cultures shaping contemporary modes of writing, this seminar series will look at the kinds of creativity involved in writing and translation with a view to highlighting the re-versioning and re-visioning at the heart of creative and literary endeavour. It will also seek to interrogate notions of translation both literal and metaphorical and to reflect on the challenges posed by multilingual writing and self-translation for both Creative Writing and Translation Studies.
