The 2025 workshop of the TORCH Network Poetry in the Medieval World investigates how literature changes and how emerging written languages, styles, and narratives emerge across diverse geographical and cultural contexts. Through the example of poetry, the workshop seeks to uncover shared patterns and distinct trajectories in the development of vernacular literatures. It considers how authors drew on, translated, or adapted models from local and transregional literary traditions to accept, propose, or reshape emerging ways of producing literature.
The workshop is part of the activities of the TORCH Network Poetry in the Medieval World.
