According to a consolidated tradition of studies, a migration of classical studies occurred in Europe between the end of the 16th and the first half of the 18th century, which abandoned Italy, the cradle of Humanism, to head towards Northern Europe and the countries where the Reformation had prevailed. The conference, attended by international scholars from various disciplines, will try to verify, through the analysis of episodes concerning the Reformed and Catholic world, whether this assumption of the history of classical philology can still be considered valid.

The Philological Institute at Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen is happy to share the program of the conference, “The Wrong Direction – Early Modern Translations into Latin,” which will take place April 13-15, 2023, at Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen. Based on the research done in Prof. Dr. Anja Wolkenhauer’s project “Versio latina”, the conference wants to use this opportunity to decidedly change perspectives and look ‘into the wrong direction,’ namely focusing on early modern translations into Latin. What are their functions? Who translated and for what kind of readership; which expectations were placed on these translations by translators, editors, and printer-publishers? Were they successful, reprinted, or overruled by rival products, or was their efficiency augmented by being intermediary versions for translations into other languages?

All information, including the concept, program (https://ianls.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/The-Wrong-Direction_Poster_eng.pdf), and flyer (https://ianls.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/The-Wrong-Direction_Flyer_eng.pdf), is also available on the conference website https://uni-tuebingen.de/en/238848. For further questions, please contact Dr. Julia Heideklang: julia.heideklang@uni-tuebingen.de.
