Meeting Description: 

Approach and Structure:
The International Colloquium on Monastic Translation is a scientific meeting
point where the state of knowledge on the value and function of translation by
members of religious orders throughout history is presented. Each edition
centers around a different religious order, with the Order of Preachers as the
main focus on this occasion.

The Order of Preachers (OP), or Dominicans, founded by Saint Dominic de Guzmán
(Caleruega, Spain, 1170 - Bologna, Holy Roman Empire, 1221) in Toulouse, and
confirmed by Pope Honorius III on December 22nd, 1216, has stood out in the
fields of theology, philosophy and doctrine, with such figures as Saint Thomas
Aquinas and Saint Albertus Magnus. In the 16th century the School of Salamanca
started to shine on its own merit and its first missionaries were sent out to
the New World. The territories covered by these friars stretched across all
continents and their missionary, anthropological and cultural endeavors found
in language and translation the path of Revelation and the fundamental tool
for the dissemination of their knowledge throughout the 800 years of their
existence.
The purpose of this Colloquium is to bring together a team of researchers to
analyze and discuss the importance of the intellectual, linguistic, cultural
and traductological heritage of the Dominican Order.

This International Colloquium will consist of two sessions in which papers are
presented both on site and virtually. There will also be a number of cultural
activities which will allow participants to acquaint themselves with the
convent where its founder’s remains lie, and the over nine-hundred-year-old
university where Saint Dominic de Guzmán himself taught.

Addressed to:
Both experienced and pre-doctoral researchers, teachers, students and all
those interested in the subject matter.

Languages of the Colloquium
Spanish, Italian, English and French.
