De kracht van poëzie

About this event

During her travels with her poems, Babs Gons has marveled at the impact of poetry and the power of words. She collected stories in which poetry brought about something essential to find an answer to the question: what is the power of poetry? Babs Gons (Utrecht, 1971) is a writer, performer, and spoken word artist. As Poet of the Netherlands (2023-2025), Gons strove to involve as many people as possible in poetry and to revive the art of recitation. The organization of the guest professorship is in the hands of the University of Groningen and Studium Generale Groningen.
