(CAPONEU) Workshop “Political Novel in Europe and Migration/Exile”
Date: 23 – 24 May 2024
Venue: The Faculty of Polish and Classical Philology AMU (Fredry 10, Poznań) and Migrant Info Point (Marcinkowskiego 11, Poznań)
The workshop is aimed at examining the presence of the issue of (e)migration in the political novel in Europe (PNE), as well as the question of how the novel portrays its causes and effects (geopolitical, social, identity-related, etc.) and presents the phenomena of various exoduses in the context of democracy and authoritarianism. The subject of literary and interdisciplinary analysis will be novels dealing with the problem of (e)migration (for economic, political, military, climatic reasons), banishment, exile, refugee trauma (caused by war), as well as the phenomena of statelessness, nomads and ‘identity’ migrations in XX and XXI centuries. The workshop is organized by Tomasz Mizerkiewicz, Krystyna Pieniążek-Marković, Anna Gawarecka, Ewa Szperlik, Magda Potok, Błażej Warkocki, Gerard Ronge (all Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań)
