Inhaltsangabe

While the rising prominence of translations has long been recognized as an essential element of early modern intellectual life, this volume shifts the focus from translated texts to the individuals who translated them. Through a series of interlocking case studies, it follows translators from Europe, through the Ottoman Empire, and as far as Mughal India, in the process raising new questions about the possibilities--and the limits--of trans-linguistic dialogue, and about translators' unique role as agents of encounter in a world in which ideas, texts and people circulated as never before.

Contributors include Giancarlo Casale, Alessia Castagnino, Angelo Cattaneo, Tunahan Durmaz, Stefan Hanss, Giovanni Lista, Jose Maria Perez Fernandez, Baki Tezcan, and Ann Thomson.
