Podcasts about canan marasligil

Anne Carson is a literary superstar. At sixteen years old, she fell in love with the ancient Greek language and pursued her passion by translating Sappho, Sophocles and Euripides. From the end of the 1980s until today, Anne Carson has published a plethora of works that investigate the twists and turns of love, sexual yearning and despair, affirming the tragic beauty of the monstrous and the fury of a desire that transcends all standards. Her radically modern oeuvre wonderfully disturbs categories as it blends poetry, prose, translation and academic thinking. Have you ever heard about brainsex? Lust is a glistening thread not quite taut in our lives; Canan Marasligil tightropes on tiptoes through the worlds of Anne Carson, intimately confessing about her own affective life and translation work. Between the twists of the tongue, Canan takes us on a journey to be displaced, where translating is the ultimate carnal experience, a necessity to grow wings, a desire to turn into desire.Written by Canan Marasligil.

In deze bonusaflevering praat Read My World-redacteur Canan Marasligil met Hengameh Yaghoobifarah over trauma en veerkrachtigheid, racisme en white fragility, en het leven van een queer-migrantenleven in Duitsland. Hengameh Yaghoobifarah is een in Berlijn gevestigd journalist en schrijver. Hen is bekend vanwege hun columns in krant Taz, waarin hen het Duitse zelfbeeld van een tolerant en kleurenblinde samenleving betwist op zowel grappige als vlijmscherpe wijze, zonder angst voor controverse. Deze aflevering werd opgenomen tijdens de boekpresentatie van de Nederlandse vertaling van Hengameh's roman Ministerie van dromen, een boek dat alom bejubeld werd in de Duitse pers. In het boek volgen we Nas, een jonge queer vrouw, wiens wereld plotseling in duigen valt als haar zus Nushrin overlijdt door een auto-ongeluk. De zussen hebben samen veel doorstaan: hun vlucht naar Duitsland vanuit Iran, het verlies van hun vader, en hun emotioneel afstandelijke moeder. Na Nushrins dood neemt Nas de tienerdochter van haar zus in huis en probeert te begrijpen wat er gebeurd is. Was het ongeluk van haar zus een ongeluk, of was het zelfmoord? Had haar zus geheimen voor haar? * Current Literary Affairs is een podcast over de actualiteit door de lens van de literatuur, waarin we in gesprek gaan met schrijvers van over de hele wereld.

Hengameh Yaghoobifarah is a Berlin based journalist and author. They are famous for their columns in newspaper Taz, in which they challenge the German self-image of a tolerant and colorblind society, being both funny and razor sharp, not shying away from controversy. The episode was recorded at the book launch of the Dutch translation of Hengameh's novel Ministry of Dreams, which was universally lauded in the German press. In the book we follow Nas, a young queer woman, whose world suddenly shatters when her sister Nushrin dies in a car crash. The sisters survived a lot together: their flight to Germany from Iran, the loss of their father, their emotionally distant mother. Now that Nushrin is dead, Nas takes in her sister's teenage daughter and tries to understand what has happened to her. Was it an accident, was it suicide? What secrets did her sister keep from her? Current Literary Affairs is a podcast in English by SLAA and Read My World. This is the fourth episode.

This week the Dual Poetry Podcast is focusing on nature poems. In the shadow of the climate emergency poems about the natural world take on a new significance, so during the second week of the 2021 COP 26 conference in Glasgow we consider now contemporary poets are taking on and reshaping the traditional subject of nature. Setting aside red roses, summer flowers, floral metaphors about love or odes to the glories of the countryside, rather we are looking to nature as a site of political encounter. So on this weeks podcast our poems in Turkish, Somali and Chinese are offered in that spirit, as a call to encounter nature as a radical alternative where the vibrancy and resiliency of nature with its cycles of regrowth and complex balancing of interwoven diverse systems offer an alternative to a destructive capitalistic model of endless growth driving towards an unsupportable monoculture.   You will hear I know the unspoken by Bejan Matur translated from the Turkish by Canan Marasligil with Jen Hadfield, Our land by Asha Lul Mohamud Yusuf, translated by Said Jama Hussein Maxamed Xasan ‘Alto' with Clare Pollard and Empty Town by Yu Yoyo, translated by Dave Haysom with AK Blakemore.   You can read Leo Boix blog Diana Bellessi: Ecological Subjectivity and the Poetics of Biodiversity on the PTC website. In fact you can read it in English or Spanish.

In this special anniversary show, it’s our 10th episode and 3 years since we started this podcast, we go back to our common passion for books, literature, and writing that has been nurturing our daily conversations and friendship, ultimately creating the base for this podcast. You are on a treat for moving stories that even we didn’t get to reveal to each other before about how our passion for the written word and more generally for a creative life started. Spoiler alert: memorable funny childhood moments that involve both our families. We made sure to include in the show authors and books that moved us mostly this year. And we have a pull of recommendations for you to be covered for the holiday season. And that’s not all. We also take you on a tour into our home libraries. Because they don’t only host our books but peculiar objects too. Only some made it to our show (there are many and it was hard to make a selection), the stories they carry and the connections they make to our memories. Finally, we share how our interest for a creative life, for reading and writing shaped our work and helped us becoming better communicators. We wish you a lovely end of the year and happy listening and reading! We will be back in January 2021 with special guests and conversations that inspire us to live more inclusively and create a more empowering world. We can never be loud enough about the issues we care about.

here is a constant struggle in Turkey between being oneself and having to fit into a mould – a mould shaped by nationalistic values and imposed by a majority – which makes daily life extremely difficult for people who come from one of the many minority communities. This state of struggle and in-betweenness is described in the poem ‘Uniform’ – from school days dressed in ‘mouse grey’ skirts all the way to adulthood. The human suffering, the yearning for love and hope, portrayed in Karakaşlı’s poems is the daily reality for people in many parts of the world. Beyond specific historical and cultural contexts, Karin Karakaşlı’s poetry is a beautiful expression of the human soul: with all its darkness and light, including all the many shades of emotions and thoughts in between, seeking to build a common language through poetry. Canan Marasligil, from her introduction to Karin's Chapbook History-Geography The Dual Poetry Podcast is one poem in two languages from the Poetry Translation Centre. Please take a moment to rate and review this podcast on iTunes or wherever you download.

The poem is about the poet's love of a medieval stone tower in Istanbul, Turkey. Karin Karakaşlı’s pain can be deeply felt in most of her poems. However, alongside this we encounter an enormous amount of love for the geography she lives in, especially the city of Istanbul. Karakaşlı has an almost synergetic relationship with this city, as we can see in this poem ‘Galata’ – with the history embedded in every stone, every building and every landscape. You can buy 'History-Geography' a short introduction of poems by Karakaşlı, with translations by the poet Sarah Howe and Canan Marasligil. This is part of our new rebranded weekly release: the Dual Poetry Podcast, one poem in two languages from the Poetry Translation Centre. As ever we will be releasing a translated poem each week.

This week's poem podcast contains three short poems by Kurdish-Turkish Poet Bejen Matur, translated by Canan Marasligil and UK poet Jen Hadfield. The poems are 'Dead Sun', 'There is no Sun' and 'Truth'. Bejan Matur’s enthralling visceral poems are among the most imaginatively potent being written anywhere in the world. She is one of the leading voices of a bold new women’s poetry emerging from the Middle East. Her award-winning poems describe a delicate space between concrete realism and mystical reflection, engaging with the struggles of the Kurdish people of Turkey. The PTC's introduction to Bejen Matur's poetry, Akin to Stone will be published in October. You can pre-order it from the PTC online book shop now.
