Centrul de cercetări Interlitteras

http://www.litere.usv.ro/centrul de cercetare inter litteras/index.php

HISTORY AND AIMS
The INTER LITTERAS Research Centre was founded in January 2005 and validated by the CNCSIS Evaluation Commission in April 2005; it brings together academics and researchers from various branches of philologz, including Romanian Language and Literature, Modern Languages and Literatures, Translation and Interpretation Studies. The Centre consists of 38 members. The Research Centre Coordinator is Muguraş CONSTANTINESCU, PhD. Professor.
The aim of the INTER LITTERAS Research Centre is to promote fundamental and applied research in the area of literature, language and translation viewed as both unitary fields and complementary subfields of knowledge. Any evaluation of linguistic phenomena makes implicit or explicit use of literary studies to the same degree as any interpretation of literary texts entails the study of linguistic aspects. This mutually dependent relationship is also inherent to the study of phenomena and facts related to translation theory and practice.

OBJECTIVES
The Centre has the following objectives:
- to develop fundamental and applied research in the specified fields of knowledge;
- to focus on its members’ various scientific interests in similar research areas with the definite aim of creating a resourceful and renowned group of researchers;
- to initiate partnerships with Romanian and foreign universities and related professional associations;
