John Mateer
Born in South Africa, living now in Australia, the poet John Mateer has always been interested in the diversity of poetries and languages and the relations between their traditions. His fascination, which began with attempts to write in Spanish-influenced Afrikaans and later led to an emulation or dialogue with modern Australian, African, Indonesian and Japanese poetries, in recent years has led him to travel to Portugal and China to write under the aegis of the roaming Portuguese tradition of Luis de Camoes and Fernando Pessoa.
