Helsinki Poetics Conference returns—by popular demand from the public and the poetry community! It is an open, seminar-style event aimed at poets, writers, and literary scholars, as well as anyone interested in questions of poetics.
The conference continues the tradition of the Helsinki Poetics Conference, founded 20 years ago as a parallel event to Runokuu (Poetry Moon) and held in various forms and venues between 2005 and 2012. The aim of the Poetics Conference is to foster dialogue between researchers, poets, artists from other fields, and the public.
This year’s Poetics Conference, held during Runokuu, has the theme of “Kertaus” (repetition, or refrain). Speakers include author Tiina Lehikoinen, author Taneli Viljanen, and Otso Venho, editor-in-chief of Nuori Voima magazine.
The event description will be updated in August.
