Abstract

Translation as a Cognitive Activity provides an overarching account of translation as a cognitive activity, from the pioneering use of think-aloud protocols as a sole technique used to investigate the translation process in the mid-1980s to the latest developments in the field. This book focuses on the main aspects of translation as a cognitive activity, including detailed descriptions of translation process research as well as research on translation competence and its acquisition. Providing thorough information into ways of studying translation as a cognitive activity by means of systematic references to empirical-experimental investigations, this innovative textbook promotes knowledge about the cognitive study of translation to related fields.
