Translatio Studiorum
Ancient, Medieval and Modern Bearers of Intellectual History
Series: - Brill's Studies in Intellectual History, Volume: 217
Volume Editor:
The present volume collects seventeen case studies that characterize the various kinds of translationes within European culture over the last two millennia. Intellectual identities establish themselves by means of a continuous translation and rethinking of previous meanings—a sequence of translations and transformations in the transmission of knowledge from one intellectual context to another. This book provides a view on a wide range of texts from ancient Greece to Rome, from the Medieval world to the Renaissance, indicating how the process of translatio studiorum evolves as a continuous transposition of texts, of the ways in which they are rewritten, their translations, interpretations and metamorphosis, all of which are crucial to a full understanding of intellectual history.
Marco Sgarbi, Ph.D. (2010) in Philosophy, University of Verona, is Jean-François Malle-Harvard I Tatti Fellow at Villa I Tatti. The Harvard University Center for Italian Renaissance Studies.

‘’These individual essays […] will be of great interest to scholars working on philosophical history and on the periods or authors touched upon in the book — and it is of course to the editor’s credit that he managed to include them in this […] fascinating collection.’’
