Writer in Residence
Every year, a Writer in Residence is appointed by VU Amsterdam to reflect on current issues facing the university as a social institution. The Writer-in-Residence Programme is concluded with a publication.
Interested in Désanne van Brederode’s publication? Then visit this year’s Abraham Kuyper Lecture. Would you like to read the works of other Writers in Residence? These publications aren’t for sale but only gifted as collector’s items in limited quantities. If you are interested in these publications, please send an e-mail with your motivation to info@vuuniversitypress.nl.
Babs Gons
‘That is what I once dreamed of: spoken word as a valued literary genre in the middle of society, in the middle of culture. Every era has its contemporary troubadours, its own griots, poets, loudmouths, screamers, declaimers with their social and poetic commentary on life, love, death and everything in between.’
For Babs Gons, spoken word is a way to connect. With art, but especially with a company, a municipality, a community of like-minded people, of other speakers.
