Translation and material culture in early modern Europe
Monday, June 3, 2019
With financial support from the Federation for the Humanities and Social Sciences’ International Keynote Speakers Support Fund
In recent years, Prof. Roger Chartier particularly addressed the issues of textual transmission through joint mediations of translation, textual mobility, and print culture. These themes were particularly explored in a series of lectures at the Collège de France (2015-2017, 2017-2018), as well as in the monograph L'Œuvre l'Atelier et la Scène. Trois études de mobilité textuelle (Paris: Classiques Garnier 2014). In this plenary, Prof. Chartier will return to the key aspects of the links between translation, writing, book circulation, and reading practices in early modern Europe.
