Registration for the Oxford Translates keynote, given by Ann Morgan, is now live!
Author, blogger and literary activist Ann Morgan shares how translators blew open her writing and reading when they came to her aid during her 2012 quest to read a book from every country. Over the years that followed, as that personal project became a lifelong endeavour that continues to see Morgan championing stories underrepresented in the anglophone publishing industry, the insights that came through reading in translation led Morgan to propose a different approach to reading – one that puts not-knowing rather than sense-making centre stage.
In this keynote presentation and Q&A, Morgan discusses the ideas that inspired her incomprehension workshop and latest book, Relearning to Read: Adventures in Not-knowing, and explores how making friends with uncertainty could help us read ourselves and our world better.
