FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 20 April 2012 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 20 April 2012 AMERICAN ACADEMY IN ROME WITH THE SUPPORT OF THE CASA DELLE LETTERATURE DI ROMA CAPITALE ANNOUNCES A TWO-DAY SERIES OF READINGS AND CONVERSATIONS ABOUT TRANSLATING MODERN AND CONTEMPORARY POETRY ON 3 & 4 MAY 2012 Giorgio Vasari, Uomo che legge alla finestra, affresco Museo statale di Casa Vasari, sala del Trionfo e della Virtù Su concessione del Ministero per i Beni e le Attività Culturali – Soprintendenza per i Beni Architettonici, Paesaggistici, Storici, Artistici ed Etnoantropologici di Arezzo “C’è più onore in tradire che in essere fedeli a metà” / “There is more honor in betrayal than in being half faithful” – Giovanni Giudici (1924-2011), from his poem “Una Sera Come Tante” / “An Evening Like So Many Others” Rome - The American Academy in Rome is pleased to present Translating Poetry: Readings and Conversations, a two-day event featuring a series of readings and conversations by international writers and translators that will explore the translation of modern and contemporary Polish and Italian poetry into English, as well as the translation of English-language poetry into Italian. The events will take place on Thursday 3 May at the Academy’s Villa Aurelia and on Friday 4 May at the Casa delle Letterature in the historic center of Rome. The sessions will be in English or Italian (Polish poetry will also be read in its original language) and simultaneous translations of public conversations (in English and Italian) will be available. Karl Kirchwey, poet and Andrew Heiskell Arts Director at the American Academy in Rome, said, “2011 at the AAR featured a major tribute to Nobel Laureate Joseph Brodsky, former Trustee of the Academy, and the world premiere performance of a new play by Nobel Laureate Derek Walcott. Building on this foundation, in 2012 we are pleased to present an ambitious series of readings and conversations on the subject of Translating Poetry. Given the rapidity and volatility of communications across cultures and between countries, in the contemporary world, surely there can be few subjects more complex and fascinating—but also more relevant—than that of the translation of modern and contemporary poetry, since poetry in its essence is the most distilled and untranslatable of literary forms. We are fortunate to have gathered with us in Rome not only two major Polish poets and ten leading Italian poets, but also a cast of distinguished translators, many of them also poets, to present and explore the beauty of poems in Polish, Italian, and, English. We are also delighted to be collaborating in this series of programs with Rome’s dynamic literary center, the Casa delle Letterature.” On 3 May the Academy’s William B. Hart Poet-in-Residence Robert Hass, who is also the leading American translator of Polish Nobel Laureate poet Czesław Miłosz, will be joined by Polish poets Julia Hartwig and Adam Zagajewski and American translator Clare Cavanagh in a bilingual reading and discussion (in English) of work by poets including Hartwig, Miłosz, Zbigniew Herbert, Wisława Szymborska, and Zagajewski. During the evening of May 3 and continuing on May 4, the conference will focus on Geoffrey Brock's new anthology The FSG Book of Twentieth-Century Italian Poetry (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2012). Italian poets including Edoardo Albinati, Antonella Anedda, Franco Buffoni, Patrizia Cavalli, Franco Loi, Valerio Magrelli, Lucio Mariani, Maria Luisa Spaziani, and AAR Italian Affiliated Fellows Massimo Gezzi and Guido Mazzoni will read from their own work, as well as from work by Italian poets such as Bartolo Cattafi, Franco Fortini, Eugenio Montale, Giovanni Pascoli, Cesare Pavese, Clemente Rèbora, Nelo Risi, Umberto Saba, and Andrea Zanzotto. English versions of the Italian originals will be read by translators including Damiano Abeni, Sarah Arvio, Geoffrey Brock, Moira Egan, Jamie McKendrick, Anthony Molino, and Susan Stewart. Jennifer Scappettone, will read from her translations of Amelia Rosselli. Several of these poets and translators will participate in a public conversation (in English) on May 4 about the particular challenges of translating modern and contemporary poetry from Italian into English. On May 4, there will also be a bilingual reading of poems by Lord Byron, Anne Carson, Seamus Heaney, John Keats, William Shakespeare, and others as they have been translated by Italian poets and translators including Damiano Abeni, Antonella Anedda, Franco Buffoni, Patrizia Cavalli, Moira Egan, Massimo Gezzi, and Guido Mazzoni. Following this reading, there will be a public conversation (in Italian) about the process of translating English-language poetry into Italian. Seating on a first-come, first-served basis. Simultaneous translation will be available. Translating Poetry: Readings and Conversations is made possible through generous gifts by Mr. and Mrs. Charles Price, by American Academy Trustee Emerita Nancy M. O’Boyle, and with the support of the Casa delle Letterature di Roma Capitale, Istituto Polacco di Roma, and the Polish Book Institute. Collaborating institutions include the Keats-Shelley House and the British Council.

Through a national juried competition, the Academy offers up to 30 Rome Prize fellowships in architecture, design, historic preservation and conservation, landscape architecture, literature, musical composition, and the visual arts; as well as in ancient studies, medieval studies, Renaissance and early-modern studies, and modern Italian studies. The Academy also appoints Italian Fellows in the arts and humanities. The Fellows, who live in a dynamic and interactive community set high up on the Janiculum, are joined by a select group of Residents, distinguished artists and scholars invited by the Director. Founded in 1894 and chartered as a private institution by an act of Congress in 1905, the Academy is supported by gifts from individuals, foundations, and corporations, and competitive grants from the National Endowments for the Arts and Humanities. Of the 30 foreign academies in Rome, only the American Academy relies entirely on private rather than government support. www.aarome.org .

  • Gli Immediati Dintorni Franco Arminio
    Gli immediati dintorni La bellezza Incontro con lo scrittore, poeta e “paesologo” Franco Arminio Portami con te in un supermercato, dentro un bar, nel parcheggio di un ospedale. Spezza con un bacio il filo a cui sto appeso. Portami con te in una strada di campagna, dove abbaiano i cani, vicino a un’officina meccanica, dentro a una profumeria. Portami dove c’è il mondo, non dove c’è la poesia. (da Cedi la strada agli alberi, Chiarelettere, 2017) L’autore sarà presentato da Fabio Pusterla. Martedì 17 ottobre 2017 ore 18.00 Aula magna del Liceo cantonale di Lugano 1 viale Carlo Cattaneo 4 – Lugano Franco Arminio (1960) è un poeta, scrittore e regista italiano, fondatore della disciplina da lui definita “paesologia”. Molto apprezzato da Roberto Saviano, Arminio ha pubblicato, tra le altre opere, Vento forte tra Lacedonia e Candela. Esercizi di paesologia (Laterza 2008, Premio Napoli); Cartoline dai morti (Nottetempo 2010, Premio Stephen Dedalus); Terracarne (Mondadori 2011, Premi Carlo Levi e Volponi); Geografia commossa dell’Italia interna (Bruno Mondadori 2013) e i libri di poesia Poeta con famiglia (Edizioni d’If 2009), Stato in luogo (Transeuropa 2012) e il fortunatissimo Cedi la strada agli alberi (Chiarelettere 2017). È animatore del blog “Comunità provvisorie” e direttore artistico del festival di paesologia “La luna e i calanchi”. Celle qui ruine l’être, la beauté, sera suppliciée, mise à la roue, déshonorée, dite coupable, faite sang (…) Notre haut désespoir sera que tu vives, notre coeur que tu souffres, notre voix de t’humilier parmis tes larmes, de te dire la menteuse, la pourvoyeuse du ciel noir, notre désire pourtant étant ton corps infirme, notre pitié ce coeur menant à toute boue.

  • For Immediate Release
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 25 March 2011 NOBEL LAUREATE DEREK WALCOTT PRESENTS WORLD PREMIERE READING OF HIS NEW PLAY MOON-CHILD (TI JEAN IN CONCERT) AT THE AMERICAN ACADEMY IN ROME ON 4 APRIL 2011 Derek Walcott photograph courtesy of Lia Chang "Derek Walcott has moved with gradually deepening confidence to found his own poetic domain, independent of the tradition he inherited yet not altogether orphaned from it...The Walcott line is still sponsored by Shakespeare and the Bible, happy to surprise by fine excess. It can be incantatory and self-entrancing...It can be athletic and demotic...It can compel us with the almost hydraulic drag of its words." -- Seamus Heaney Rome – The American Academy in Rome is pleased to announce that Nobel Laureate Derek Walcott, the Academy’s second annual William B. Hart Poet-in-Residence, will present a world premiere reading of his new play entitled Moon-Child (Ti Jean in Concert), on Monday 4 April 2011 at 9pm at the Academy’s Villa Aurelia. An internationally-renowned poet and playwright, Derek Walcott will lead the performance, together with actors Wendell Manwarren, Giovanna Bozzolo, Dean Atta and composer Ronald Hinkson. The April 4 event will be free of charge and open to the public. Karl Kirchwey, the American Academy in Rome Andrew Heiskell Arts Director, stated: "We are delighted to be presenting the world premiere reading of Derek Walcott’s most recent play Moon-Child (Ti Jean in Concert) at the American Academy in Rome. As the first poet, and indeed the first writer, to hold the Andrew Heiskell Arts Director position at the Academy, my commitment is to curating world-class public events in literature to complement those already in place in music, the visual arts and the humanities.
