On Languages and Peoples
Publication launch and conversation w/ Dabartis
Join us for a launch of Languages and Peoples, a collaboration between Dabartis from Vilnius and Nieczytelne from Wrocław, that features a multi-language (RU, PL, LT, EN) translation of an essay by philosopher Giorgio Agamben, accompanied by their collectively written response.
The publication evolved out of a conversation on nationalism with comrades across Poland, Lithuania, Belarus, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark and the United Kingdom. It can be seen as an effort to cultivate strategies for our unbelonging to nation-states and the very grammars of modern politics through autonomous linguistic and social practices—practices that hold the potential to subvert and destabilize our vicious entanglement in ever developing configurations of the “People.”
The presentation of the publication will serve as a warm-up for the continuation of this conversation with friends in Copenhagen.
The publication will be available at the event for a suggested donation of 10e.
