    Content: This volume provides the first transnational overview of the relationship between translation and the book trade in early modern Europe. Following an introduction to the theories and practices of translation in early modern Europe, and to the role played by translated books in driving and defining the trade in printed books, each chapter focuses on a different aspect of translated-book history - language learning, audience, printing, marketing, and censorship - across several national traditions. This study touches on a wide range of early modern figures who played myriad roles in the book world; many of them also performed these roles in different countries and languages. Topics treated include printers' sensitivity to audience demand; paratextual and typographical techniques for manipulating perception of translated texts; theories of readership that travelled across borders; and the complex interactions between foreign-language teachers, teaching manuals, immigration, diplomacy, and exile.

    Content: "Created in 1539, the Biblioteca Colombina in Sevilla contains over 3000 books. This is but a fraction of one man's life spent collecting every book on every subject - including antique and modern worlds, science and law, as well as playing cards, pornography, and popular music. Who was Hernando Columbus and how did he achieve this? Set to the backdrop of Christopher Columbus' paradigm-defining explorations of the New World and beyond, and cutting across events of the Renaissance and Reformation, this book follows Hernando Columbus' bibliomania and curation of the first ever library of its kind. As the `natural son' of Christopher, Hernando had a complex relationship to his father and an acute need to validate his position. While originally from Liguria, Italy, it is in Spain that Christopher found travel patronage. The newly united Spain was under the rule of Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabella of Castile. Due to this special rapport, Hernando spent his formative years as a page boy for Prince Juan, setting himself up as part of the royal inner circle. In his time assisting with the various minute as menial tasks necessary for the care of the Infante, he learned how to devise various organisational systems that would inform his future librarianship. By the time of his death in 1539 Hernando possessed the largest book collection of Europe - yet it was but a fraction of his collection, which he had envisioned as `everything' on every topic. Hernando had built an immortal engine capable of withstanding the return to dust that awaited all humans, creating not only a repository for books but also a proposition for how they would fit together. In this book, Wilson-Lee chronicles his extraordinary journey."--

    Content: Shakespeares Botschaft ist universell und trifft die Menschen über Jahrhunderte, Grenzen und Kontinente hinweg ins Herz. Als viktorianische Forscher sich Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts im Namen des British Empire in Ostafrika auf Expedition begaben, hatten sie zum Überleben in der Wildnis auch das Werk William Shakespeares im Gepäck. Damit begann der ungewöhnliche Siegeszug des großen Dichters in einer Region, die von seiner eigenen Lebenswelt kaum weiter entfernt sein könnte und in der sein Erbe bis heute präsent ist. Shakespeares Texte gehörten zu den ersten, die von befreiten Sklaven in Swahili gedruckt wurden, indische Bahnarbeiter nutzen die Texte, um für ihre Rechte zu kämpfen. Intellektuelle, Revolutionäre und Staatschefs der ersten unabhängigen afrikanischen Staaten - sie alle machten sich Shakespeare zu eigen. Der in Kenia aufgewachsene Shakespeare-Experte Edward Wilson-Lee erzählt Geschichten von exzentrischen Forschern und dekadenten Emigranten, von Intrigen des Kalten Krieges und revolutionären Kämpfern. Seine Reise auf den Spuren des Dichters führt ihn durch Kenia und Tansania, Äthiopien und Uganda, Sansibar und den Sudan.

    Content: The untold story of the greatest library of the Renaissance and its creator Hernando Colón This engaging book offers the first comprehensive account of the extraordinary projects of Hernando Colón, son of Christopher Columbus, which culminated in the creation of the greatest library of the Renaissance, with ambitions to be universal--that is, to bring together copies of every book, on every subject and in every language. Pérez Fernández and Wilson-Lee situate Hernando's projects within the rapidly changing landscape of early modern knowledge, providing a concise history of the collection of information and the origins of public libraries, examining the challenges he faced and the solutions he devised. The two authors combine "meticulous research with deep and original thought," shedding light on the history of libraries and the organization of knowledge. The result is an essential reference text for scholars of the early modern period, and for anyone interested in the expansion and dissemination of information and knowledge.
