Abstract The complex production of translation and editorial intermediation is a timeless, often contentious issue. This essay focuses on the over one hundred such publications in order to assess the role translation and translators played in responding to the demands of an avid and ever-increasing readership, and it provides a chronological list of translations printed in England between and Translation, Print and Culture in Britain, The titles of early modern translated works played an important role, and one that went beyond that of a marketing device.

Created by printers as well as by the translators themselves, they fulfilled the traditional functions of such They also provided a space for making the foreign visible or invisible, but also for enhancing the status of the translation and the translator. The corpus of texts examined in the article came off the presses of three important London printers: This essay explores the young Princess Elizabeth's relationship to Latin and to translation, seen in the letters she addressed to her father and brother and in her Latin rendering of Katherine Parr's 'Prayers or Meditacions' and These works demonstrate that she was aware of the power of the written word and how she could harness that power to protect herself, reinforce family relationships, articulate the Tudor conception of the monarchy, and create a persona for herself, that of a learned and pious young woman.

This historiographical gap can partly be explained by the lack of a theoretical framework for studying the market for translations in the period. We have drawn on Robert Darnton's 'communication circuit' model and others adapted from it, we have created the first model for studying printed translations in early modern England. It centres on translators as key partners and cultural agents and facilitates a more accurate investigation of translations as material and cultural objects.

Similar claims can be made with regard to the advent and spread of print in Western Europe. Developments in our research into both these areas of activity have also ploughed similar furrows and translation studies and print history, or history of the book, have often overlapped, although this is not always recognised by either translation or book historians.

The specific relationship of translation to the early book trade is a crucial one that needs further study.
