together, £11.99 A collaboration between Lidia Vianu, Professor of contemporary British literature at the English Department of Bucharest University, and poetry p f, a growing showcase of poets writing in English, some fully accomplished with several published collections, others at the start of their poetic careers. After a year of operation... the publication of a bilingual anthology (book and CD) and the Romanian UK tour! The tour (20 March to 2 April 09) went with a real swing... Smashing venues and great audiences. Representing Prof Vianu and their co-translators at the University of Bucharest, Lavinia Zainea and Elena Nistor read with over 20 of the poets whose work has been translated and ran a translation workshop at the University of Middlesex. (photos) London, York, Cambridge, Teddington, Southsea, and back to London again, we were well-received everywhere. And we couldn't have done it without the sheer generosity of all those who supported us with donations and advertising, our one sponsorship deal with Arc Publications, and the equally generous support of the Romanian Cultural Institute, who hosted the Grand Finale in London, linking it with their Enescu season of concerts by young musicians. We were joined in the latter part of the tour by Aprilia Zank, co-ordinator of our sister project, poetry tREnD - translation into German, Ludwig-Maximilians University, Munich, whose tour photos are included in the photos page (link above). Also see poetry tREnD for details of the project and photos from their open day in Germany in February 09. Many thanks, too, to Patrick Widdess who featured some of the poems on his Music and Spoken Word radio show, Headstand, in April 09... You can tune into his show at 105 fm or listen on the net at 209.radio.co.uk Sponsorship/Advertisers Donations And if you'd like to support the tour (it's not too late to help us break even...) with actual loot, poetry p f will be very, very, grateful... We can still take donations and we'd really like the bilingual anthology and CD to get out there and be enjoyed. Buy online by credit card or download an order form (pdf).
