Abstract:

This volume explores the intersection between Translation Studies and History
and Philosophy of Science to shed light on the workings of scientific
communities, the dissemination of knowledge across languages and cultures, and
the transformation in the process of that knowledge and of the scientific
communities involved, among other issues. Through a diachronic approach, from
some chapters focussing on early modernity to others that explore the final
decades of the twentieth century, and by considering myriad languages, from
Latin to Hindi, the twelve chapters of this volume reflect specifically on:
(A) processes of the construction and dissemination of knowledge through the
work of specific agents (whether individuals or collectives); (B) the
implementation of particular linguistic strategies and visual tools in the
translation of knowledge and in the diffusion of translated knowledge; and (C)
the role of institutions and governments in the devising and implementation of
translation policies, as well as the impact of these.
