The poetic work of Marius Torres is presented in Greek at Vryssaki, in an afternoon full of poetry.

Marius Torres is one of the most important lyrical voices of contemporary Catalan literature. In the last seven years of his life, he devoted himself to writing and rewriting a short but impactful poetic work, which has already been translated into several languages.

In this event, there will be a brief introduction to the research project of the Marius Torres Chair of the University of Leida and a small bilingual collection of poems, nine in total, will be presented (in Catalan and Greek ) as a sample of a wider anthology that will be released next year.

Speakers:

Joan Ramon Veny-Mesquida, professor at University of Leida

Maira Fournari, translator
