This is the first translation of a Transactions paper hosted on one of our platforms, and we hope that it might be the first of many. Ana has provided an introduction to her translation, both in English and Spanish, reflecting on the interpretation process and the tensions it raised.

I didn't notice that the RGS journals are making space to host translated versions of articles (which are importantly open access). This is a wonderful initiative!!
