Beschreibung

Starting in Toledo in the 12 century we find a number of attempts of single persons as well as of groups of translators rendering Jewish and Muslim texts into Latin.
The workshop aims at comparing two different places and times of such translations, namely the Toledan (non)school of translations in the 12th century and the Dominican translations by Ramon Martí and the Dominican convent of Barcelona.
These two centres will allow us to examine in detail shifts and changes in translation agendas and strategies on the Iberian Peninsula. One interesting feature of these shifts is the role of the Jews: while in the Arabic-Latin translation project Jews often acted as mediators, in the later translation movement it were their own texts which became the object of translation.
