Polska edycja VIII Międzynarodowego Tygodnia Pynchonowskiego rozpoczyna się środę (9.06) na UMCS.
Międzynarodowy Tydzień Pynchonowski (International Pynchon Week) to doroczna konferencja poświecona wszystkim aspektom życia i twórczości Thomasa Pynchona – jednego z najwybitniejszych a jednocześnie najbardziej tajemniczych pisarzy amerykańskich, słynącego ze skłonności do ukrywania swojego wizerunku przed mediami.
International Pynchon Week odbywa się co dwa lata w innym mieście europejskim (w 2008 roku gospodarzem było Monachium). Organizatorami polskiej, ósmej edycji Tygodnia Pynchonowskiego są Uniwersytet Marii Curie-Skłodowskiej, Katolicki Uniwersytet Lubelski oraz Uniwersytet Warszawski.
Wszystkie referaty i prezentacje odbędą się od 9 do 12 czerwca w sali obrad Rady Wydziału Humanistycznego UMCS, w budynku Nowej Humanistyki UMCS.
Podczas tegorocznej edycji imprezy referaty wygłoszą pynchonolodzy i pynchoniści z USA, Chin, Włoch, Grecji, Francji, Niemiec, Wielkiej Brytanii, Irlandii, Hiszpanii, Holandii, Węgier, Finlandii, Chorwacji, Danii i Polski.
Uczestnicy wydarzenia to nie tylko pracownicy naukowi – w imprezie wezmą również udział m.in. tłumacze prozy Pynchona z Francji, Węgier i Polski.
