Sérgio Godinho, Inês Pedrosa, Carlos Magno, Rosa Alice Branco, Rui Lage, Vasco Gato and Claudia Lucas Chéu will be present between 8 and 10 December
Sérgio Godinho is one of the headliners of this year's event, in a conversation mediated by Sérgio Almeida, in which the musician, performer and poet will talk about his relationship with poetry. We won't forget Manuel António Pina and evoke the life and work of the 2011 Camões Prize winner in the session "The poem upside down", in the company of Carlos Magno and Rui Lage.
The book O Poeta Faz-se vol. 2 will be launched and presented at the event. This work is the result of the poetic workshop carried out by the library and is aimed at those who are learning to read and write as adults. These texts will be joined by visual works developed by the students and by MAZE, visual artist, poet and rapper of Dealema.
We will also have "Boca em Flor", a musical and poetic performance with Ana Celeste Ferreira and the trainees of the poetic laboratory. Rosa Alice Branco and Vasco Gato get together to discuss the "Deslimites da Palavra" as poets in a conversation that is not to be missed.
The youngest will also have a dedicated program on December 9 and 10. From poetry for kids recited by grown-ups to the magic of S. Tomé and Príncipe in the voice of Olinda Beja, as well as Sebastião Peixoto's live illustration, there are many activities to delight the younger ones.
Five decades after its launch, Inês Pedrosa and Claudia Lucas Chéu recall and project the New Portuguese Letters, a seminal work of feminism in Portugal, in the session "New Letters, New Times".
And on the Feast of Poetry, the spoken word is also celebrated, and the 9th and 10th will be punctuated with "Poesia Maldita" (Damned Poetry), at schools, the municipality's prisons and the municipal library Florbela Espanca, by the diseurs Isaque Ferreira, João Rios and Rui Spranger.
To close, Pedro Piaf will present the public with the poetic performance "Se não escreve, era capaz de ser infeliz", based on the poetic work of Manuel António Pina.
Admission is free and limited to the capacity of the space.
