I’m sure many people in the project would agree with me that it would be quite a treat if you all would share some of your experiences at the conference with the rest of us. Hope you enjoyed yourselves and learned something new!

Karen, thanks for introducing us to the world of Walt Whitman, I know this symposium will by no means be the last thing I did when his poetry is concerned 😉
Велико хвала!!!

Which I did NOT do, just for the record :)

Anyways, it was just a great experience, even though I was not the target audience I enjoyed the heat of the debate and I guess that all of us gained something definitely positive from this :)

My colleagues, I am happy and content (here you are, both words that have caused us a headache:-)) to have known you and to have shared some of my thoughts and feelings with you.
Mr.Puresic, thank you for your unselfish dedication in helping us translate Whitman’s poetry. I felt honoured to discuss with you some ambiguities and aspects of his poetry. Thank you for your patience and time.
Finally, Karen, thank you for all your love and effort you have made in showing us that “poetry does matter”. As Paul Valery said:
“Onaj koji pise u stihu plese na konopcu. On hoda, smeska se, pozdravlja i sve to nije nista izvanredno do trenutka dok ne postanemo svesni da taj tako jednostavan i opusten covek izvodi sve to na niti debljine jednog prsta”
(“The one who writes in verse dances on the rope. He walks, smiles, greets, and nothing of it is extraordinary till the moment when we realise that that man, so simple and easy-going, does all of it on a thread thick as a finger.”)
