On the development of cognitive translatology

Ricardo Muñoz Martín

The developments in cognitive science after the information-processing paradigm are sketched out, indicating advances in psychology, linguistics, and anthropology. Cognitive translatology draws from these advances to adopt an encyclopedic view of meaning and an interpersonal (rather than interlinguistic or intercultural) view of translating, while rejecting two-phase and three-phase models of the translation process. A thorough, comprehensive revision of theoretical assumptions is claimed to be necessary to further the construction of cognitive translatology, and the necessity of this is illustrated with brief discussion of the notions of deverbalization, universal semantic representation, and competence. Relevance-theoretical approaches and the overlap between second-generation cognitive science and social-constructivism in translatology are also discussed.
