Assistant Professor in Translation Studies

*Queer Feminist Translation, Affect and Decoloniality.*



*One-day symposium*



Free event



*Wednesday 26th February 2025, 10-16.45 and 18.30-21*



Organised by Michela Baldo, Elena Basile and Samuele Grassi



*Venue: University of Birmingham, Alan Walters LT2 G11 and online*



A hybrid one-day symposium exploring horizons, challenges, and
possibilities of transfeminist queer translation in connection to theories
of affect and decoloniality.

Starting with an opening address by leading feminist writer *Sara Ahmed*,
the day will unfold with panels and roundtables that will discuss the
ethics and politics of translation as an accountable, embodied, and
affective practice.


The evening event, *rumi roaming in Birmingham, *will feature a group of
poets and artists gathering together to offer poetry readings, video
screenings and performance work from and inspired by the multi-lingual and
multi-platform anthology *rumi roaming: contemporary engagements and
interventions* (Guernica and Subversive Press, 2025).
