The project examines the reception of Antiquity, which is characteristic of Early Modern cultures of translation. The project is not restricted to the linguistic-literary level, since it also investigates the underlying normative and epistemic concepts. Translations are considered as anthropological key texts that are by humans for humans, and negotiate human matters. This constitutes the fundamental hypothesis of the project. It combines numerous fields of research: the cultural theory of translation, the social theory of intersectionality and the literary study of humanism. The objectives of this project are to outline the concept of a ‘translational anthropology‘, to make the theory of intersectionality applicable to the analysis of translations, and thereby to provide a conceptual contribution to the SPP 2130.During the first funding phase, the 16th-century German translations of the works of Homer and Ovid were examined with reference to the power relations they establish, the identity categories they form, and the norms they convey. In order to further outline the specificity of Early Modern translational anthropology, the second phase applies the developed methodology to other translations of antique texts, putting an increased focus on their social spaces of reception. Again, the project is composed of two closely interrelated parts: the first component project examines the German translations of comedies by Plautus and Terence, the second the German translations of the church father writings by Basil the Great and Jerome. Both component projects also include comparisons with other foreign-language translations. The change of genres complements the text corpus examined in the first phase: the dramatic and patristic texts are rooted in distinct cultural contexts and produce life designs and identities, which have no place in epic poetry. In terms of their institutional ties, the German translations extend the scope of examination to include the areas of school and stage as well as church and pulpit respectively. The intersectional analysis of gender, religion, class, age, ethnicity, education, sexuality, and dis/ability offers new interpretations of the Early Modern translations and their ancient pre-texts.

该项目考察了古代的接受情况，这是早期现代翻译文化的特征。该项目不仅限于语言文学层面，因为它还调查了潜在的规范和认识概念。翻译被认为是人类学的核心文本，是人类为人类服务的文本，是协商人类事务的文本。这构成了该项目的基本假设。它结合了众多的研究领域：翻译的文化理论，交叉性的社会理论和人文主义的文学研究。该项目的目标是概述“翻译人类学”的概念，使交叉性理论适用于翻译分析，从而为SPP 2130提供概念上的贡献。在第一个资助阶段，16世纪荷马和奥维德作品的德语翻译被检查，参考他们建立的权力关系，它们所形成的身份类别，以及它们所传达的规范。为了进一步勾勒出早期现代翻译人类学的特殊性，第二阶段将发展的方法论应用于其他古代文本的翻译，更加关注其接受的社会空间。同样，该项目是由两个密切相关的部分组成：第一个组成项目审查德国翻译的喜剧普劳图斯和特伦斯，第二个德国翻译的教会父亲著作的巴西尔大和杰罗姆。这两个组成项目还包括与其他外语翻译的比较。体裁的变化补充了第一阶段考察的文本语料：戏剧和教父文本植根于不同的文化背景，产生了生活设计和身份，这在史诗中没有位置。在机构关系方面，德文译本将考试范围扩大到学校和舞台以及教堂和讲坛。性别，宗教，阶级，年龄，种族，教育，性和disability的交叉分析提供了新的解释早期现代翻译及其古老的前文本。
