Abstract

The History and Translation Network (HTN) and the Department of Translation Studies of the University of Graz organized the third international conference of the HTN in September 2024 for scholars with an interest in the interplay of history, translation, and politics. The central themes were explored from a range of theoretical and methodological perspectives, reflecting the diverse disciplinary traditions represented by the participants. In doing so, the conference strengthened the interdisciplinary dialogue between historians and translation scholars, fostering new connections and collaborations. The HTN once again affirmed its role as a fruitful platform for expanding the horizons of translation studies.
