A workshop to introduce Vietnam’s contemporary literature, movie industry and language is taking place in Paris, France from March 17-19 with the participation of more than 50 researchers and translators from many countries over the world.
The event was organised by four French universities (the National Institute of Oriental Languages and Civilisations (INALCO), the Paris Diderot, the Paris-Est Creteil and the Aix-Marseille) in conjunction with the Hanoi National University, the San Francisco University of the US, Japan’s Tokyo Foreign Language University and Thailand’s Chulalongkorn University.
Benoit Paumier, General Commissioner of the France-Vietnam Year, said the workshop is an important event in the framework of the Vietnam Year in France in 2014, as Vietnam’s literature is drawing increasing interest of French people and publishers.
Aboubakr Chraibi from the INALCO said the event contributes to promoting cultural exchange among countries across the world, with the French language and culture serving as a bridge to connect Vietnamese literature with international contemporary literature trends.
Meanwhile, Doan Cam Thi, who is author of many studies on Vietnam’s literature, affirmed that the event provides a good chance for Vietnam to introduce its contemporary literature and movies to international friends.-VNA
