The CUHK Department of English will host a symposium I’m co-organizing with Visiting Professor Dorothy Wang (Williams College) and Professor Elmo Gonzaga (CUHK Department of Cultural Studies). Confirmed poets include Don Mee Choi, Mary Jean Chan, Will Harris, Prageeta Sharma, Conchitina Cruz, Cyril Wong, Nicholas Wong, and Lawrence Lacambra Ypil. Our goal is to gather internationally renowned poets to discuss the cultural, literary, and linguistic impacts of Asian and Asian-diasporic poetry on global Anglophone literature. Each poet will offer a public workshop in addition to a public reading and panel discussion of their work. Find details here.
