On 18th of Mai, in Berlin the [Translit] editorial committee will take place, welcomed by Penka Rare Books & Archives.
In addition to the historiography of Eastern European press in emigration and the digitization of archives today, there are also new experiences of emigration, including those of editorial teams, and their attempts to continue publishing in exile.
But what, in fact, does exile mean today, when one can be in 24/7 electronic communication with “the other side”. This is something that emigration in previous eras didn’t have, which is why it was perhaps more site-specific and more oriented towards printed matter, this great organizer of the community. What changes in the cultural worker’s experience of exile the presence of zoom and therefore the possibility of zooming daily into contexts in which s.he for some reason cannot be physically present?
While in the current emigration experience from Eastern Europe in general, the notion of “relocation” seems to be quite symptomatic for and indicative of attempts to de-dramatize and de-problematize the experience of emigration on the individual level (not actually to call it that), then for editorial team the questions of discursive relations with the “homeland” persist in new ethics of geo-positioning of speech, print and archive. From where are we speaking and for what audience? Are we temporally in exile (and soon will come back to reconstruct our country)? Or it is definitive, for the rest of our lives, and, therefore, we need to assimilate and to develop some discursive tactics of printing in and from exile? Where we prefer to keep the archives?
This editorial committee of [Translit] is intended to report on and analyse different individual tactics of linguistic exile and the “functional schism” that occurred between those who stayed and those who left of the editorial board of [Translit] magazine (existed in S-Petersburg from 2005 to 2022, starting from 2023 published in Marseille).
Participants of the talk — members of editorial board and/or authors of forthcoming issue «Printed matter in exile»
Pavel Arsenev on geoposition of speech and media assimetry in contemporary emigration.
Isabel Jacobs on Poplavsky, Bataille and exilic philosophies of friendship in the interwar period. Among the participants of the discussion will be
