Inspired by Ewa Marcinek’s investigative approach, this lesson explores the hidden lives of words, tracing their origins and journeys while inviting you to uncover the meanings that live within us and shape our realities.
Helen Hafgnýr Cova invites you to explore how different languages can interact creatively, reflecting on linguistic identity while building confidence and discovering the expressive possibilities of multilingualism.
Natasha S. invites you to reflect on how literary heritage shapes a writer’s path and voice, exploring personal experience in relation to the broader context of Russian exophonic writing.
Translation is not reproduction — it is an act of reading so close it can fuel an author’s own writing. In this session, led by Francesca Cricelli, we treat the translated word as raw material: a spark, a provocation, a door left ajar. Students don't need to know the source language to work with it. They can also pick their own pair of languages and adapt the methodology to their creative needs.
