Half of the lessons will focus on the major stages in the history of translation in Europe (Antiquity, Bible translation, translations of Greek texts into Latin via Arabic translations of the great Renaissance period, the translation during the romantic era, etc.). Some specific issues will also be discussed, such as the place of history in translation studies, the historicity of translations, or case studies, such as the issue of re-translation (eg about Franz Kafka ...), the questions posed by the (re) intersemiotic translations (which are connected to other arts, such as opera, film, graphic arts ...).
