Under the auspices of the Leuven Medieval Institute and within the framework of the research project “Translating biological treatises in the Middle Ages”, we are organizing an international colloquium at the university of Leuven (Belgium), 27-29 May 2004. This colloquium is focused on medieval translations of scientific treatises in Western Europe, either from Greek into Latin, or from Latin into a vernacular language. These translations are to be studied from a linguistic (especially lexicological), philological or historical point of view. Priority is given to the scientific areas of biology, medicine, astronomy or physics; studies on encyclopaedic texts are also welcome. The Renaissance period may be taken into account for this meeting, provided it is considered in relation to the Middle Ages.
The following scholars have already accepted to give a keynote lecture: J. Ducos (Université de Bordeaux), D. Geeraerts (K.U.Leuven), D. Langslow (University of Manchester) and A. Vitale Brovarone (Università degli Studi di Torino).
