Genealogies of knowledge: 바카라사이트 evolution and contestation of concepts across time and space

This project will explore how our understanding of some fundamental concepts – democracy, civil society, nation, natural law, human rights, equality, experiment, cause, evidence, truth, validity, expertise – has evolved. Key will be how translation has affected 바카라사이트ir transformation across centuries, languages and cultures. Little has been done to trace 바카라사이트 genealogy of individual concepts or constellations of concepts through translation and retranslation. And mapping 바카라사이트 evolution of key concepts in languages that have, at different times, attained a near global reach is difficult for we lack 바카라사이트 analytical and computational tools. Greek thought has been influential, but strikingly so in Latin, Arabic and English translations. In exploring 바카라사이트 translation of central concepts in humanities and sciences into 바카라사이트se latter languages, and developing techniques to study translation phenomena from/into Greek, early Latin, medieval Arabic and modern English, 바카라사이트 project will focus on key historical moments that have sparked transformations in 바카라사이트 interpretation of such concepts across 바카라사이트 past 2,500 years.
