Legacy of Popovič and Holmes beyond their century

eds. Emília Perez, Martin Djovčoš, Mária Kusá

The Nitra School and the Low Countries School contributed greatly to the formation of translation studies in the 1960s, 70s and 80s. Both key personalities of these schools – Anton Popovič and James S. Holmes – had an important impact in the initial decades of the field. This issue focuses on their work, research and methodological approaches. The authors introduce the schools and their main representatives in the context of their time. However, they don’t only offer a trip down memory lane to the historical roots of these schools but also try to show to what extent value has been – and can be – added to the lines of thinking in contemporary research stemming from the Low Countries and Nitra.

Interdisciplinary play and interplay in the post-digital age

eds. Bogumila Suwara, Jana Tomašovičová

The potential of digital technology has been fostering close cooperation among a multitude of disciplines in the natural, technical, and information sciences. The topic of this issue is interdisciplinary play and interplay in the post-digital age with a focus on the perspectives, possibilities and limits of modern technology in the humanities. The authors reflect on several relevant ques¬tions: How does fast growing digital technology change and restructure the contours of Western culture? Are the hitherto employed schemas of interpretation and methodological strategies sufficient to grasp contempo¬rary culture? What effect does digital technology have on literary production? The contributions in this issue offer both theoretical reflection of these processes and applications in the form of experimental projects.

Gender insights into literary history

eds. Jana Cviková – Ingrid Puchalová

Since the end of the 20th century, gender as an analysed and analytical category, together with the related category of desire, has been increasingly employed also in literary historiography. Both terms reveal and revise androcentric and heteronormative exclusion and silencing, and at the same time self-critically reflect their own assumptions. The contributions in this issue are by authors from the (East-) Central European space, which is also the volume’s main thematic focus. They test the inter- and transdisciplinary potential of diverse and often contradictory feminist/gender/queer approaches.
