Introducing the Centre for Poetry and Poetics and Creative Writing committee and their different roles
The Centre for Poetry and Poetics and Creative Writing brings together those fascinated by poetry both in and out of 葫芦影业, including academics, poets, publishers, students, and readers. It comprises faculty from the University of 葫芦影业, alongside 葫芦影业 based poets, presses and other affiliates. Its outlook is, however, cosmopolitan, its interests鈥 eclectic, and its attitude idiosyncratic. The centre is unique in the country for its ability to draw on experts in the history of poetry and its forms, from the twelfth century to the present day, from cognitive poetics to the material history of cheap print, from translation to creative writing through editorial theory. It is one of the contentions of this centre that poetry is research, whether in its understanding of the continuity of form and content, the inseparability of knowledge from its making, or its reflection on performance as inquiry for reader, speaker, and listener. We will therefore make and promote writing, symposia, conversations, and readings welcome to all.
The Centre for Poetry and Poetics and Creative Writing aims to define the University of 葫芦影业, and the city of 葫芦影业, as a leading site of excellence in the research led practice of poetry across its composition, through its performance, in its publication and according to its historical and contemporary interpretation. To do so the centre brings together researchers of poetry from the following perspectives: the cultural and philological history of poetry and poetics from the 8th Century to the present day across multiple languages; the history of print cultures; cognitive approaches to literary interpretation; translation into and out of poetry as part of a history of form and ideas; poetry and poetics as practice-led research. The centre currently supports the following interconnected research themes:
Poetry, Poetics & Philology
Translation across Languages, Histories & Forms
Cognitive Poetics
Poetry & Science
Practice as Research in Poetry
Poetry and Print Cultures
