'''''Translatio studii''''' ([[Latin]] for "transfer of learning") is a [[Historiography|historiographical]] concept which originated in the [[Middle Ages]]<ref name=Newsom>Carol Ann Newsom and Brennan W. Breed, ''Daniel: A Commentary'', Westminster John Knox Press, 2014, p. 89.</ref> in which history is viewed as a linear succession of transfers of knowledge or learning from one geographical place and time to another. The concept is closely linked to ''[[translatio imperii]]'', which similarly describes the movement of imperial dominance.  Both terms are thought to have their origins in the second chapter of the [[Book of Daniel]] in the [[Hebrew Bible]] (verses 39–40).<ref name=Newsom/>
