What Sparks Poetry:
Matvei Yankelevich on "Rug/Hydrangea"
"Interpretation in this case has to do as much with the author’s historical context and (contextually-bound) poetics as it does with the gist of a phrase, a line, or any semantic or aesthetic unit. The tricky thing is to enact the poem within the scope of the interpretation. It is this tension between interpretation (contextual meaning) and performance (the gesture, the gist) that constitutes a translation." |

Kazim Ali Wants More Poetry in Our Lives
"What are the things that prevent us from accessing our own creativity? We are living in a moment of political uncertainty, planetary imbalance and economical uncertainty, and we also have the biomedical crisis in the pandemic. These are perilous times, and it is a moment where people need their creative resources more than ever.”
