Moving between two or more languages was normal in early modern (c. 1500-1700) European culture and society. Recent research on such topics as transnational literatures, translation and imitation, language learning and the relation between Latin and vernaculars is drawing attention to ways that multilingualism was a constitutive part of early modern literary culture.
This international symposium, supported by a grant from the AHRC Open World Initiative project ‘Multilingualism: Empowering Individuals, Transforming Societies’, will bring together scholars based in the UK and continental Europe to advance interdisciplinary perspectives on the contexts and literary applications of early modern multilingualism.
