Papers from the Symposium about medieval translation practices at the University of Copenhagen on the 25th and 26th of October 2002.
Abstract
The symposium was organized in a collaboration between the Institute for Roman Studies, the Arnamagnean Institute, the English Institute and the Institute for Greek and Latin. In prolongation of the active debate about medieval translation practices that we are observing today, the symposium created a forum for discussion of the ways how Europe translated and adapted texts in the Middle Ages. Among other things, the papers deal with the fidus interpres problem, i.e. the degree of fidelity of the target texts in relation to their models, and they put forward especially literary texts in a broad sense.
