We follow the rich tradition of theoretical research in translation studies in Nitra going back to the 1970s and 1980s. At that time, Nitra was already well known in the field of translation studies both in Slovakia and abroad thanks to Professor Anton Popovič and his colleagues from the Institute of Literary Communication at the former Pedagogical Faculty in Nitra.
