Basque Poetry Reading

Information
Franco’s dictatorship and its anti-Basque stance impacted the themes of Basque poetry during the dictatorship. Social justice and political protest were often the focus. After 1975, now in democratic context, Basque poets were able to broaden their topics, presenting the challenge of re-inventing Basque poetry. In addition to reading selected Basque classiscs and one original composition, audience participation will be sought in interpreting texts.
Francoren diktadurapean eta ondoren, demokrazian, euskal olerkariek idatzitako olerki sorta irukarruko da. Bi garai hauetan jorratzen diren gai ezberdinen adibideak dituzten olerkiak direla bitarteko, entzulegoak parte-hartzeko aukera izango du olerkien interpretazioan.
