Centre for Reception Studies (CERES)
The Centre for Reception Studies (CERES) based at the HU Brussel stimulates and supports research projects that aim at a diachronic and synchronic mapping of the dynamics of textual distribution in a broad European context. Its principal object of study is the impact of the distribution of literary texts on the formation of cultural identities . The centre favours an interdisciplinary approach that combines reception studies, book science, historical descriptive translation studies and hermeneutics.
