  • 2019 27Th Annual Poets House Showcase Exhibition Catalog
    2019 27th Annual Poets House Showcase Exhibition Catalog Poets House | 10 River Terrace | New York, NY 10282 | poetshouse.org ELCOME to the 2019 Poets House Showcase, our annual, all-inclusive exhibition of the most recent poetry books, chapbooks, broadsides, artists’ books, and multimedia works published in the United States and W abroad. This year marks the 27th anniversary of the Poets House Showcase and features over 3,300 books from more than 800 different presses and publishers. For 27 years, the Showcase has helped to keep our collection current and relevant, building one of the most extensive collections of poetry in our nation—an expansive record of the poetry of our time, freely available and open to all. Building the Exhibit and the Poets House Library Collection Every year, Poets House invites poets and publishers to participate in the annual Showcase by donating copies of poetry titles released since January of the previous year. This year’s exhibit highlights poetry titles published in 2018 and the first part of 2019. Books have been contributed by the entire poetry community, from the publishers who send on their titles as they’re released, to the poets who mail us signed copies of their newest books, to library visitors donating books when they visit us. Every newly published book is welcomed, appreciated, and featured in the Showcase. The Poets House Showcase is the mechanism through which we build our library: a comprehensive, inclusive collection of over 70,000 poetry works, all free and open to the public. To make it as extensive as possible, we reach out to as many poetry communities and producers as we can, bringing together poetic voices of all kinds to meet the different needs and interests of our many library patrons.

  • Translating the Literatures of Smaller European Nations: a Picture from the UK, 2014-161 a Report by Rajendra Chitnis
    Translating the Literatures of Smaller European Nations: A Picture from the UK, 2014-161 A Report by Rajendra Chitnis (University of Bristol), Jakob Stougaard-Nielsen (UCL), Rhian Atkin (University of Cardiff) and Zoran Milutinović (UCL) Executive Summary This report arises from a series of public, industry-focused workshops, interviews and other published material between 2014 and 2016, the life-span of an AHRC-funded project that explored how smaller European literatures attempt to reach the wider world. It concentrates on the variety of actors who collaborate to bring a text to an international audience. Since all work to persuade that audience to pay attention to their text, we have designated them ‘advocates’. Key findings: • The widespread and enduring pessimism about the prospects for translated literature in the UK is outdated. • Concern has shifted from a focus on the low amount of translated literature being published to questions about the diversity of literature translated. 1 The project team would welcome any comment or feedback on this report, which should be sent to Dr Rajendra Chitnis at the University of Bristol ([email protected]). 1 • The number of independent presses publishing translated literature has markedly increased in the past decade, often founded by people from corporate publishing or the financial sector with sophisticated strategies for raising their profile and establishing their brand. • Technological advances are central to the growth in translated literature. Social media, book review sites, on-line reading groups and bloggers have transformed the notion of ‘word-of-mouth’. • Translated literature remains a preoccupation of the educated urban middle-class, centred fundamentally on London and almost completely absent from school curricula.
