Register to participate
Generation gap always occurs not only in family but also in different connections/ relationships in social life, especially in the diaspora community. It is the meeting of differences in lifestyles, ways of thinking, wishes and expectations, etc. In other words, it is also the inevitable meeting point of different identities. Within the framework of the European Literature Days 2023 project, the Goethe-Institut organizes a talk "Heritage, Care and Distinction: Generation issues from a European-Vietnamese perspective".
It will introduce to the public the project materials of second-generation Vietnamese writers Khue Pham (Germany), Nhung Dang (Czech Republic) and young Vietnamese author ChuKim Nguyen Anh Tuan. Those reflect the stories between mother and son, daughter and mother; between generations of colleagues (poets) in different cultural, economic, political and social contexts. Through creative styles of expression, Mẹ ơi, Letter to NEO and How for heaven’s sake, can you call yourself a poet? by the three authors bring to the public important slices of life of an overseas Vietnamese mother wishing to pass on heritage to future generations, an overseas Vietnamese daughter losing her mom to war and a young innovative poet loving experimental poem.
The open dialogue at the event will offer the interested public fresh perspectives on the generation gap and how creative fields such as literature play a role in reflecting social issues.
* These are documents of MY VIETNAM, a project about Vietnamese identities across borders implemented by the Goethe-Institut in collaboration with local partners. The project got financial support from the Delegation of the European Union to Vietnam and other individuals. This event is one of three events being organized from May to July, 2023 to introduce project materials.
