EUTERPE Spring School Lectures


Gaza does not propel people to cool contemplation; rather, she propels them to erupt and collide with the truth.” – Mahmoud Darwish, Silence for Gaza (1973)

In collaboration with Comma Press, the EUTERPE project is honoured to present a panel on Palestinian British voices, during which we will delve into the work of Nada Shawa, Mohammed Ghalayini, and Azhar Herez. What does it mean to write, read, and critically engage with literature amidst an ongoing genocide? This is the central question of our panel discussion, followed by a Q&A. Join us at the University of York and take advantage of this opportunity to learn about the positive and challenging experiences of transnational authorship.

The discussion will be moderated by EUTERPE doctoral candidate Ninutsa Nadirashvili.
