Philosophy in/on translation
Research and reading group / Grupo de pesquisa e leitura
Our reading sessions take place every 2-3 months and have different set-ups. We may work with a seminal paper, a working paper or an already published work by one of our members or by a guest. After a few introductory remarks, the host opens the session with a quick presentation of the work in the question. This is followed by a discussion in small groups in multilingual breakout rooms.

"Feeling of (un)familiarity and linguistic intimacy in translation"
The new format doesn't entail any reading in advance. Lectures will take about 50 minutes, which will be followed by a break and then a group discussion.
This time around, we'd like to ask you to circulate the invite among colleagues who may not be a part of the Transphil group. They can register here.
