Entitled, <strong>&#8216;Cultural Translation, Interpretation, and Transmission of Ideas in the Early Modern Period and\u00a0Beyond<\/strong>&#8216; the conference&#8217;s keynote speeches will be given by Professor Michael Neil of the University of Kent and Professor Kapil Raj of the Centre Alexandre-Koyre.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>More about the conference<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>As Peter Burke remarked, translation between languages is only the tip of an iceberg, only one aspect of a broader phenomenon usually described as cultural translation. In this conference\u00a0translation will be examined in the broadest possible sense, as the negotiation and interpretation of texts, images, and events of the early modern period. In our understanding, cultural encounters and the recontextualization of concepts and practices can be read as a process of translation.\u00a0The\u00a0focus will be laid on\u00a0the acts of understanding and interpreting texts and\u00a0artefacts, and transmitting\u00a0ideas between\u00a0cultural,\u00a0ethnic, and religious groups\u00a0through\u00a0different media.<\/p>\n<p>Our goal is to emphasize the diversity of the modes of exchange, and to specify the purpose of cultural translation in the context of case studies.\u00a0In summary, we are interested in translation from two major aspects.\u00a0Firstly, papers will discuss the methods employed by early modern writers and artists in translating the world into texts and works of art. Secondly, we will also look at the ways in which the early modern continues to be translated for audiences today. This conference brings together researchers from around the world, providing a global perspective to early modern studies.<\/p>\n<p>For full details about Fourth TEEME Conference, including the programme, please visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/translatingtheearlymodern.wordpress.com\/\">conference website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>About TEEME<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>TEEME is an international doctoral programme in early modern studies funded by the European Union.
