Kubrick Poetry •February • Home Away Elsewhere

時間 Time:2012/2/26 (Sunday) 5:00pm-6:00pm
地點 Venue: 油麻地 Kubrick(next to Broadway Cinemathèque, 3 Public Square St.)
主持 Moderators:Polly Ho, Adam Cheung, Florence Ng
詩人 Poet:Vaughan Rapatahana

Born Patea (ko Te Atiawa te iwi), Ph.D University of Auckland, Aotearoa-New Zealand. Lived and worked in several countries, including UAE, Republic of Nauru, Brunei Darussalam, PR China and currently spends his time between homes in Te Araroa, Pampanga, Hong Kong. Published extensively in a variety of publications worldwide – from Philosophy Now to Asian Cha - and author of several books and poetry teaching resources. Also Poetry Editor Maori and Indigenous Review Journal.

Vaughan Rapatahana’s poems are replete with references to his own Indigenous heritage in Aotearoa-New Zealand and his current exiled status as a resident also of both Hong Kong and Pampanga, Philippines. Indeed themes of alienation, marginalization, alternatives scream through his lines – apposite for a man with a Ph.D in existential literary criticism and the work of the author of The Outsider, Colin Wilson.

Rapatahana will read from his two 2011 poetry publications of Home Away Elsewhere (Proverse Hong Kong); china as kafka (Kilmog Press, Aotearoa-New Zealand) and his new HKDSE poetry & song teaching resource (Aristo Educational Press) will also be available for viewing

文學院要搬家




(Polly Ho)

文學院要搬家, 許多港大的畢業生都捨不得。

今年香港大學比較文學系今年開辦了“現代詩”一課, 除了介紹理論外,亦鼓勵同學把堂上學到的知識實踐於創作。張美君博士(Dr Esther Cheung)收集了同學的優秀作品,希望和大眾分享作品和創作過程,於是造就是次讀書會。張美君博士帶來了一班寫現代詩的學生:林嘉慧、吳靜文、林三維、林凱敏、林俊宇和伍一龍同學。

寫《關於港大本部大樓的五首詩》的林嘉慧,寫《沉默的回聲》的吳靜文,寫《粉碎前的二三事》的林三維和林凱敏,寫《海外》和《外海》的林俊宇。同學們透過詩表達對港大本部大樓依依不捨之情,利用相片和文字道出生活在香港商業社會的被壓抑,運用頭鏡寫烈日光罩下的紅磚建築,寫幻想中的聖地牙哥,寫夏天的塘福,引用北島和盧勁馳詩句再抒發感受……型型式式,都是真挈的流露。







畢業了的師兄師姐也來支持,包括雨希和盧勁馳。

紅磚牆上美好的時光,是否只在詩句中找到?
