Third year Creative Writing PhD student Lucy Hulton presented at the interdisciplinary and multilingual conference Interweaving Languages that took place from the 7 to 13 October. The main conference (9 to 11 October) took place in Budapest, Hungary, with other sessions being offered online.
The conference was organised by LangueFlow, an international research team exploring how multilingualism is ‘expressed in literature, from covert, hidden and latent forms through several degrees to visible and overt manifestations’.
Presentations covers various themes and topics, including AI, dance, and minority languages. Lucy’s presentation explores how the idea of ‘misreading’ may serve as a useful too to interpret multilingual writing from a neurodivergent paradigm. Dr Szilvi Naray presented a paper virtually on translating ‘difficult women’ (Kriszta Tóth).
LangueFlow is organising a range of events in 2026, and their website includes a range of information on multilingualism, including easy-to-read texts.
