Large or small? Near or far? Urban or provincial? Sometimes it\u2019s a question of perspective. Perikles Monioudis (Land<\/em>, Paladium<\/em>, Eis<\/em>) was born in Glarus, Switzerland, a town of less than 6,000 inhabitants, as the son of Greek parents from cosmopolitan Alexandria. Mar\u00eda Cecilia Barbetta travelled from her native Buenos Aires to Berlin, ended up staying, and wrote her debut novel, \u00c4nderungsschneiderei Los Milagros<\/em> in German. And Joseph O\u2019Neill (Netherland<\/em>), of Irish-Turkish extraction, grew up in the Netherlands, where he attended the Lyc\u00e9e Fran\u00e7aise and the British School. It goes without saying that a person with this kind of background couldn\u2019t live anywhere else but the famous Chelsea Hotel \u2013 with his family. As different as the origins, paths, and aesthetic sense of these writers may be, they share a spirited take on the colorful (and dark) sides of cultural transfer, whether forced, accepted, or deliberate. Mar\u00eda Cecilia Barbetta summed it up aptly in an interview: “I\u2019m at home where Argentina and Germany meet. But you won\u2019t find that place on any ordinary map.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Where: Austrian Cultural Forum, 11 East 52nd Street, New York, NY 10022 Free and open to the public Authors: Joseph O\u2019Neill, Mar\u00eda Cecilia Barbetta, Perikles Monioudis In conversation with Daniela Strigl and Klaus N\u00fcchtern For we can fly we can fly Up, up and away My beautiful, my beautiful balloon Jimmy Webb: \u201cUp, Up and […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":46,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[67486],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-277056","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-articles"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/277056","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/46"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=277056"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/277056\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":349256,"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/277056\/revisions\/349256"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=277056"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=277056"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/College\/translation\/threepercent\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=277056"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
