While the cariocas, residents of Rio de Janeiro, prepare for the long holiday weekend in honor of Black Consciousness Day, St. Peter’s College, at the University of Oxford in England, is promoting a turbo-charged schedule for November 17-18 in honor of Clarice Lispector, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of her death.
Organized by Professor Claire Williams, the conference After Clarice: Lispector’s Legacy will gather the greatest experts of the work of the author of The Passion According to G.H. to discuss a wide range of topics.
By counting on academics who translated Clarice’s works, the conference aims to shed light on the different perspectives of translators into various languages, a topic that will lead to much debate.
Artists who have interpreted Clarice, personage or work, will not be left out. Gathering professors from Berlin to Beijing, including scholars from the University of Minho and the University of Ceará, and, of course, counting on several in-house professors, After Clarice will also hear specialists with respect to the editorial policies around the work of the honored author– not losing sight also of Clarice Lispector, the newspaper chronicler, who wrote to earn a living.
“To write is to shine,” Otto Lara Resende affirmed in the profile he created of the writer. Yes, Clarice will indeed shine in the English autumn at Oxford.

The day I met Clarice was not the same day she met me. I was all adoration, observing her. She had no reason to even lay eyes on me. Leaving the Jornal do Brasil newsroom together, the journalist Yllen Kerr, a great friend of mine, said he was going to visit Clarice and asked if I wanted to go. Did I ever!

I died. I found out when, one day, on the sidewalk of Praça Maciel Pinheiro, I lifted my head, opened my eyes, and saw myself dead, there on the plaza’s sidewalk, the two-story house on the other side of the street. My broken heart inside my chest, the two-story house on Rua do Aragão, 387, where, on the second floor, Clarice Lispector lived a happy childhood here in Recife, despite the pains of the world and experiencing and feeling, mainly, the pains of an implacable disease that would one day take Mania, her mother, away from her. I found out when, laid out on the sidewalk there under the scorching Sunday sun, I turned my head to the right and saw a man beside me, who was also looking at the house.
