How Language Reforms Poetry and How Poetry Transforms Language

The New Philology Circle (Nouveau Cercle Philologique) brings together people who passionately believe that languages matter. Join the circle: together we’ll choose its meaning. Our first meeting is a lecture by Dr. Ping Wang (University of Washington, Asian Language and Literature): How Language Reforms Poetry and How Poetry Transforms Language-A Pivot Point in Medieval Chinese Literary Culture. Cake will be served for the after-lecture conversations.

This event is sponsored by the department of French, the department of Pacific and Asian Studies, the program of Medieval Studies, and the Faculty of Humanities.

Join us for this event on October 21st 4:30 - 6:00 pm in HHB 105. This lecture is free and open to the public, but please RVSP (with Circle in the subject line) to Helene Cazes.
