LETTERATURA | ITALIAN POET DAVIDE RONDONI AT MALTA MEDITERRANEAN LITERATURE FESTIVAL

The Festival Mediterranju tal-Letteratura ta’ Malta or Malta Mediterranean Literature Festival is an established annual international literary festival organized by the voluntary cultural organization Inizjamed in collaboration with the European network Literature Across Frontiers and other national and international partners including Italian Cultural Institute, Arts Council Malta, Heritage Malta, and the Creative Europe programme of the European Union. The first edition was held in 2006. The weeklong Malta LAF Literary Translation Workshop is an integral part of the Festival.

The Festival brings together active writers and literary translators from Malta, the Mediterranean and beyond, to showcase contemporary writing and thinking, promote interaction across languages, geographies and artistic genres, and to discuss some of the major issues of our time.

We are pleased to present a major Italian poet, playwright and founder of the literary magazine “ClanDestino”, Davide Rondoni.

By fostering collaboration within specific programmes and across artistic genres through an annual literary festival, a literary translation workshop and other pre-festival events, the Festival Mediterranju tal-Letteratura ta’ Malta aims to consolidate the place of Maltese literature in its simultaneously global and Mediterranean context.

All events are open to the general public and are free of charge.
