Program

12.15- 13.45 Session 1: A Case Study on Translation Censorship in Fascist Italy

This session will look at how censorship policy evolved during the Fascist regime and the factors that eventually induced the regime to adopt restrictions towards translations. This case study will also serve as an illustration of an approach to conducting historical research on translation which will form the basis for the more theoretical discussion of the second session.

13.45-14.15  coffe break

14.15-15.45 Session 2: Methodology and Theoretical Issues in Translation History

This session will examine some of the methodological issues raised by the first session concerning historical research into translation. It will also consider some of the theoretical issues that our case study raises, such as the nature of the historical knowledge/insight we are seeking and how this is dependent on the way in which we frame our research and present it.
