As part of the "Zeitgeist Ireland 24 Initiative", a bilingual poetry jukebox will be installed on the Stadtmitte campus of the University of Stuttgart from 25 January to 31 May 2024. Passers-by can listen to the lyrical sounds in four different languages at the touch of a button. In their poems, Irish and international poets look 100 years into the future.
Jessica Bundschuh, project coordinator and research assistant in the Department of English Cultures and Literatures at the University of Stuttgart, offers on-site workshops in English for pupils in grades 8 to 13. The pupils will gain an insight into the project and discuss the idea of ambiguity together. They will also have the opportunity to test their writing talent in a creative writing task, find out what the elements of sound in poetry are all about and why a look into the future can be worthwhile.
A special highlight: In April and May, some of the poets will join the workshops in Stuttgart to talk about their everyday life as a writing artist and discuss questions with the pupils.
Please register your participation by e-mail to Jessica Bundschuh at least one week before the start of the workshops. The workshop will be held on three dates, each on a Friday in March, April and May. The content of the workshop will be tailored to the grade level of the pupils.
