沿着欧洲现代国家的殖民扩张,自然物种、商品和人口在欧洲人所知的世界范围内发生了激烈的流动。关于人口流动,最初面临的一个困境是如何理解与殖民事业的发展相联系的巨大的“不同习语的银河系”。翻译最初是欧洲人和他们所接触的群体之间的调解人。在16世纪,欧洲人开始“文明化”这些群体(在南美洲,亚洲,后来在非洲)的语言,通过一个过程,涉及语法化和词典化,在类似的和同时发生在欧洲的运动。因此,字典、语法和其他翻译工具被用来创造语言之间的理解,也被用来创造文化之间的理解(习惯、社交形式等)。无论是在欧洲还是在殖民地。
Along with the colonialist expansion of European Modern States, an intense circulation of natural species, commodities and people took place throughout the world then known to the Europeans. Regarding the flow of people, an initial dilemma faced was how to understand the immense ‘galaxy of different idioms’ contacted with the advance of the colonial enterprise. The lingoas (interpreters) were initially used as mediators between Europeans and the groups with which they came into contact. During the sixteenth century, Europeans began to ‘civilise’ the languages of those groups (in South America, Asia and later in Africa), by a process involving both grammaticalisation and dictionarisation, following an analogous and simultaneous movement that was occurring in Europe. Therefore, dictionaries, grammars and other instruments of translation were used to create understanding between languages, but also between cultures (habits, forms of sociability, and so on.)—both within Europe as well as in the colonial settlements.
