Timor-Leste: From Conflict to Reconciliation, Democracy, and Regional Integration
The Singapore Lecture series was inaugurated in 1980 by the ISEAS – Yusof Ishak Institute (formerly Institute of Southeast Asian Studies) with a founding endowment from the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), and augmented by a generous donation in 1983 from ExxonMobil Asia Pacific. The Singapore Lecture is one of the intellectual highlights of Singapore. It provides an opportunity for distinguished statesmen and leaders to reach a wider audience in Singapore. The presence of such eminent personalities will allow members of the civil service, business community, diplomatic corps, academic community, media, and other interested parties, the opportunity to hear from leading world figures speak on topics of international and regional interest. The 45th Singapore Lecture was delivered by His Excellency José Ramos-Horta, President of the Democratic Republic of Timor-Leste, on 8 December 2022, under the distinguished Chairmanship of Dr Vivian Balakrishnan, Minister for Foreign Affairs, Singapore.
Selected Works
Poetry. Translated from the Spanish by Guillermo Parra. This is a second, expanded edition of the English translation of poems by José Antonio Ramos Sucre (Venezuela, 1890-1930), which was originally published in 2012 by University of New Orleans Press. Although Ramos Sucre is a foundational figure of Venezuelan literature, it is only in recent decades that his work is being studied and disseminated, with editions of his work published in Venezuela, Spain, Mexico, France, Portugal and now the United States. This second edition includes 16 new translations. Poet and translator Guillermo Parra was born in Cambridge, MA in 1970 and lives in Clearwater, FL. He has published the poetry collections Phantasmal Repeats (Petrichord Books, 2009) and Caracas Notebook (Cy Gist Press, 2006). His poems and translations have appeared in publications such as 6x6, Mandorla, and The Brooklyn Rail. He is the translator of the novel The Conspiracy (Sampsonia Way, 2014) by Venezuelan writer Israel Centeno, which will be published in a second edition in 2016. Since 2003 he has written the blog Venepoetics, dedicated to translating Venezuelan and Latin American literature into English.
Return to Ramos
"When Juan José Ramos and his family return home to Ramos (in South Texas) after picking cotton in West Texas, they find their daughter Chita leading a school boycott. At first Juan José argues that the children are wrong: because the students are protesting, the Anglos are denying work to their parents. But at a meeting of the school board and parents, Juan José suddenly stands up to tell the community things he never dared say before..."--P. [4] of cover.
