The article presents an overview of current research projects in translation history in French-speaking countries with greater focus on a concrete research initiative on French translation history. It draws on the fourth volume of the Histoire des traductions en langue française. XXe siècle (edited by Bernard Banoun, Isabelle Poulin, and Yves Chevrel). This translation history is a unique undertaking not just in Europe, but also worldwide. The main tenets of the research are discussed and some of its aspects are highlighted in comparison to Slovak translation historiography.
