Neilly Series Lecture: Dubravka Ugresic
Hawkins-Carlson Room, Rush Rhees Library
September 20, 2018 6:00pm to 7:00pm
Dubravka Ugresic is an Amsterdam-based author who has
established herself as one of Europe’s most distinctive novelists
and essayists.
Born in the former Yugoslavia, her work often discusses the
collapse of her country, the political turmoil that ensued, and her
experience as an exile.
Her firm anti-war stance and criticism of Croatian and Serbian
nationalism turned her into a target for public ostracism and
persistent media harassment, and eventually made her
leave Croatia in 1993.
Ugresic’s books have been translated into more than twenty
languages. She has taught at a number of American and
European universities, including Harvard, UCLA, Columbia and the
Free University of Berlin. She is the winner of several major
literary prizes, including the 2016 Vilenica Prize and Neustadt
International Prize for Literature.
Her lecture will focus on political resistance and how it affected
her writing and shaped her work.
The lecture is free and open to the public. Reserved parking is available in the Library Lot. For more information,
call 585-275-4461.
Sponsored by Andrew H. and Janet Dayton Neilly Endowment, Open Letter Press, and the River Campus Libraries.
