SUMMARY:An Evening with Roya Hakakian - Poetry and Identity between Iran\, Israel and the USA @ Jewish Museum Munich
DESCRIPTION:Poetry and Identity between Iran\, Israel and the USA\n– Jewish Museum Munich\nThe Munich Research Centre for Jewish-Arabic Cultures is pleased to welcome the acclaimed journalist\, poet\, and author Roya Hakakian for an evening exploring the intersections of poetry\, migration\, memory\, and Jewish identity.\nBorn into a Jewish family in Iran\, Hakakian experienced the 1979 Islamic Revolution as a young teenager. In 1985\, she left Iran and was granted political asylum in the United States. Her memoir Journey from the Land of No (2004)\, recounting her childhood in revolutionary Iran and her experience of exile\, received wide critical acclaim and was published in German translation in 2008. She has also published two acclaimed collections of poetry in Persian.\nToday\, Hakakian is one of the leading public intellectuals writing on Iran\, the Iranian diaspora\, and U.S.–Iranian relations. Her work combines personal experience with political and cultural analysis\, while her Jewish heritage offers a distinctive perspective on questions of identity\, displacement\, and belonging.\nSince 2015\, she has taught at THREAD\, Yale University’s writing workshop\, and is a Fellow of Davenport College\, Yale University. She lives in Connecticut. \nEvent in cooperation with the Jewish Museum Munich and the BMFTR Transfer-Projekt: „Verflechtung\, Vermittlung\, Vernetzung: Jüdisch-Arabische Verflechtungsgeschichte in gesellschaftlicher Anwendung und institutioneller Vernetzung” \nAdmission free. Registration required. \n  \n \n
