Meeting with residents of the Visegrad Literary Residencies Program

What does functioning at the intersection of cultures and languages entail? How does the experience of being in between affect identity? How does it deform in literature? To what extent does bilingualism enable being in the world and being “at home”?

Zofia Ziemann, a translator and scholar from the Department of International Polish Studies at the Jagiellonian University, discussed these and many other issues with Michaela Kučova, Timea Sipos and Tomasz Jędrowski, who stayed at Villa Decius in May and June for the Visegrad Literary Residencies, during a meeting at Massolit Books on June 6.

On June 3-4, 2023, the second edition of the “Culture in Exile. Days of Solidarity at Villa Decius” will take place. It is our response to the difficult situation of the democratic opposition in Belarus and the deepening crisis of democratic values and civil liberties in that country. Bearing in mind the figures and efforts of Polish artists in exile, we invite Belarusians – victims of political oppression, who were forced to emigrate from their homeland to find a new place to live and work.
