• Translation and international reception studies have lately taken advantage of these sociological insights, which had initially been confined to a single nation. [...]Joseph Jurt was amongst the first to apply and adjust Bourdieu's concepts to the study of transnational reception.2 His contribution to this issue offers a compact overview of aspects in Bourdieu's work that bear on the international transfer of culture and ideas. Johan Heilbron and Gisèle Sapiro's contribution to this book sets a sociological view of translation against the hermeneutic approach directed at textual meaning and interpretation, on the one hand, and the reductive economic approach, with its exclusive focus on the book market, on the other.5 Like Casanova, but also like de Swaan6, they situate transnational transfer within the political, economic, and cultural power relations amongst national and linguistic communities. [...]the following articles offer a broad spectrum of concepts and approaches to case studies from different areas and periods. The conference was supported by the Royal Dutch Academy of Science (KNAW), the Huygens Institute, the Research Institute of History and Culture (OGC) Utrecht, the Institute for Historical, Literary and Cultural Studies (HLCS) Nijmegen, and the Dutch Graduate School of Literary Studies (OSL).
