The study is concerned with models of representation, connected with both historical research and cultural diplomacy theories. It juxtaposes the translation approach with the political and diplomatic problems of the Habsburg-Ottoman relations in the 16th-18th century.\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\nNot only in the Early Modern period, but even today there is a close connection between language, politics, and culture, since interests and claims had to be verbalized during peace negotiations and discussions. Finding a common in the framework within the limits of international law and developing standards and terms among Christian and European powers proved to be a major challenge, but it was much more difficult to make this within Inter-Religious and Intercultural spaces, as was the case with the Ottomans.\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\nThe successful Ottoman expansion in Central Europe brought the Empire of the Sultan to non-Ottoman language areas where Latin, Hungarian and German, all of them non-Balkan languages, were dominant. It is not a coincidence that just at that time the office of the Dragoman (the Chief Translator) of the Sublime Porte began to enjoy a high reputation. The European Christian powers, which wanted to maintain political or economic contacts with the Ottomans, had on their part to ensure that they could understand the &quot;spoken words&quot; and the writings of the Ottoman dignitaries, which without precise translation would hardly be possible. The aim of the project is to provide answers to the questions asked below and thus to formulate theses, embedded in a theoretical approach:\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\nWere all the issues, concerning translations, connected only to the simple problem of translating a document from one language to another? Do translations experience political influences as well? Maybe they have reflected also specific political situations, haven&#39;t they? Certainly, translations indeed possess a purely linguistic basis, but the matching of conceptual connotations or the agreement on certain controversial interpretations reflect at the same time the balance between the states in terms of power politics, military and cultural realities. In this respect the history of the Habsburg-Ottoman relations during the 16th-18th centuries can be examined through the above mentioned &quot;Translation Discourse&quot;.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\nWhat are the differences between the Habsburg and Ottoman &quot;translations&quot; during the Early Modern Period, considering their linguistic and non-linguistic aspects? Is there a certain symmetry or rather asymmetry between the two &quot;translation patterns&quot;? Is there a kind of cultural misunderstanding or a diplomatic attempt to bringing to life Christian-Muslim peace regulations?\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\nLast but not least, the project should focus on the Early Modern media discourse on the &quot;Peace with the Turks&quot; in the Habsburg Monarchy and the Holy Roman Empire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Maria Baramova will present her research proposal on the topic: &#8220;Armistice vs. Pax Perpetua: Habsburg-Ottoman Peace Treaties and Their Interpretation, 16th-18th Century&#8221; on 3 November 2016 (Thursday) at 16:30h at CAS Conference Hall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cas.bg\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/6862"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cas.bg\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cas.bg\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cas.bg\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cas.bg\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6862"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/cas.bg\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/6862\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cas.bg\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6862"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cas.bg\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6862"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cas.bg\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=6862"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
