In this episode the panel ‘The Science of Poetry’ recorded at the Poetry on the Move festival held in Canberra in 2019. It’s a commonplace that science is interested in objective and provable facts, while poetry is subjective: charting human experience and sensation. But this view neglects the many centuries in which poetry has responded to dazzling insights of the “new philosophy”, as John Donne called it, and science has explained itself with metaphor and intimations of the unknowable. In this panel we ask a group of scientifically-inclined poets how science works in and through their poetry, and what poetry can offer in understanding a changing physical world.

Alison Whittaker

In this episode the second of a two-part podcast ‘Poetry that Resists’ recorded at the Poetry on the Move festival held in Canberra in 2019, and presented with the support of and in conjunction with Australian Poetry. During the socially traumatised times of history the ability of poetry to express human conscience has seen it embraced as a significant art form. In this panel, a discussion on poets and poetry that “speaks back”. Poetry that utilises the active, lyrical power of poetic language to express moral and political dissent.
