CALL FOR PAPERS

HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY in collaboration with the Americas Society and The Italian Cultural Institute of New York
(December 2nd, 3rd and 4th, 2014)


Poetry and the Visual Arts in Romance Languages (XIX- XXI centuries), a tribute to Jorge E. Eielson (1924 – 2006)

There will be three day symposium honoring the Peruvian writer and artist Jorge E. Eielson: “Poetry and the visual arts in Romance Languages, a tribute to Jorge E. Eielson (1924-2006)”.  We are seeking papers (in Spanish or English) to be presented at Hofstra University on December 4, 2014. Eielson is one of the most iconic cultural figures of Latin America in the twentieth century. The symposium would take place on December 4, 2014. In 2014 Eielson would have turned 90. He is considered one of the most radical voices of Latin American poetry of that century. Although born in Lima-Peru in 1924, he lived most of his life in Italy.   At the beginning of the 1940s, his poetry showed the clear influence of mysticism, symbolism and surrealism- especially of the two European poets: Rilke and Rimbaud. Eielson’s early works reveal an astonishing formal literary perfection and almost disturbing imagistic brilliance, as seen in “Cancion y muerte de Rolando”-Song and Death of Roland ( 1943 , but published in 1959) and “Reinos” -Kingdoms ( 1945 ). His exile in Europe led him to Rome and various Italian cities; helps define another stage of his poetic production which is totally different from the first. The bulk of his poetry has been collected in “Poesia escrita” -Poetry Writing (1976 ). He was also a novelist of such well received works as: “El cuerpo de Guila-no” The body of Giulia-no (1971), “Primera muerte de Maria” -First Death of Mary ( 1988 ). His visual art shows the strong influence of pre-Columbian art and myth, and has been exhibited in major museums around the world. Canto visible- Visibile Poetry  (2002 ), a recent critical examination of his art and visual poetry appeared in Italian. He died in Milan on March 8, 2006

Some of the symposium topics will include:

--Eielson: Latin American poetry and Art
---Poetry and Canvas: The Poet as a Painter
--Poetry and the Visual Arts in France, Italy, Spain and Latin America
--Reflections on Photography and Poetry
--The Poetry of Color: Arthur Rimbaud, Cesare Pavese (founders) and Eielson
