Summary/Abstract: A pandemic can prevent a conference from taking place, but not researchers from pursuing their passionate work. Case in point: the remarkable Towards an Atlas of the History of Interpreting: Voices from around the world edited by Lucía Ruiz Rosendo (University of Geneva) and Jesús Baigorri-Jalón (University of Salamanca), prestigious scholars in the fields of interpreting in conflict zones and interpreting history. The publication was initially envisaged as a volume of proceedings from the symposium Research on the history of interpreting: Voices from around the world, scheduled for October 2020 in Geneva, a natural continuation of other symposiums, organized in 2014 at the University of Rikkyo and in 2017 at Hong Kong Baptist University, respectively. But history changed plans. Fortunately, the outcome is no less enjoyable or less useful to the readers.
