Between Poetry Research and Research-based Poetry
I am a literary scholar and poet, having obtained my PhD in 2023. My research interests include the theory of poetry translation and the history of translation in Latvia, the poetics of poetry, and contemporary poetry in Latvia and worldwide, examined through the lens of interdisciplinary cultural theory. I was a Fulbright Fellow (2017–2018) and hold a Master’s degree in Comparative Literature. I am an Associate Professor at the Latvian Academy of Culture and editor of the literary journal Strāva. I am also the author of several poetry collections. A particular passion of mine is the intersection of research and creative writing.
