___________________________________________________<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In the late 1800s, my two great grandfathers leave Ireland and Scotland with the East India Company. Then, two sons marry two Burmese daughters. These daughters are here with me now. They are holding maps in their hands, which they cannot read. Places they no longer recognise. They pass their language on to me, which I can only try to translate. I am repeating the words back to them, over the folds in time, in my Devon home. I\u2019m trying to search for a word. It sounds like a broken geology inside of me, where Burmese rubies meet the red Devon soil, or perhaps it is just the word \u2018broken\u2019. I\u2019m trying hard not to think it is that word. It sounds like the church bells from Stoke Canon tolling over the flat fields, and the cry of a tired child dragging a school bag near the front door. Sonorous chattering of wrappers from Chinese preserved plums and my mother\u2019s hand\u2019s draining rice over the sink. A glass of water on the edge of the table, a liquid syllable caught in my throat.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

I have always been fascinated by maps. These objects are closely associated with imperialistic notions of place and identity, but they can also take the form of mind-maps, maps of the body, maps of emotion. How do we translate our understanding of place in order to make our own maps through language? We will think about a range of examples from creative non-fiction to poetry including the work of Carol Ann Duffy (\u2018The Map-Woman\u2019), Maddie Mortimer (Maps of Our Spectacular Bodies), Noreen Masud (A Flat Place), the films of Jane Campion and Agnes Varda and the experimental writing of Dalia Neis.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
