Book Synopsis Describing Cognitive Processes in Translation by : Maureen Ehrensberger-Dow
Download or read book Describing Cognitive Processes in Translation written by Maureen Ehrensberger-Dow and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2015-09-15 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume addresses translation as an act and an event, having as its main focus the cognitive and mental processes of the translating or interpreting individual in the act of translating, while opening up wider perspectives by including the social situation in explorations of the translation process. First published as a special issue of Translation and Interpreting Studies (issue 8:2, 2013), the chapters in this volume deal with various aspects of translators’ and interpreters’ observable and non-observable processes, thus encouraging further research at the interface of cognitive and sociological approaches in this area. In terms of those distinctions, the chapters can be characterized as studies of the actual cognitive translation acts, of other processes related to the translation acts, or of processes that are related to the sociological translation event.
Book Synopsis Translation and Cognition by : Gregory M. Shreve
Download or read book Translation and Cognition written by Gregory M. Shreve and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Translation and Cognition" assesses the state of the art in cognitive translation and interpreting studies by examining three important trends: methodological innovation, the evolution of research design, and the continuing integration of translation process research results with the core findings of the cognitive sciences. Several of the volume s essays focus on fruitful new process research methods, such as eye tracking and keystroke logging that have arisen to supplement the use of think-aloud protocols. Another set of contributions investigates how some central theories, concepts, and methods from our sister disciplines of psycholinguistics, cognitive psychology, and neuroscience can inform our understanding of translation processes and their development in novices and experts. Yet another set of essays argues that methodological innovation and integration with the cognitive sciences can lead to more robust research designs and theoretical frameworks to explain the intricacies of cognitive processing during translation and interpreting. Thus, this timely volume actively demonstrates that a new theoretical and methodological consensus in cognitive translation studies is emerging, promising to greatly improve the quality, verifiability, and generalizability of translation process research."

Book Synopsis Exploring the Situational Interface of Translation and Cognition by : Maureen Ehrensberger-Dow
Download or read book Exploring the Situational Interface of Translation and Cognition written by Maureen Ehrensberger-Dow and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2018-08-02 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contributions of this volume explore the dynamics of the interface between the cognitive and situational levels in translation and interpreting. Until relatively recently, there has been an invisible line in translation and interpreting studies between cognitive research (e.g., into mental processes or attitudes) and sociological research (e.g., concerning organization, status, or institutions). However, rapid developments in translation and interpreting practices (professional, non-professional) have brought to the fore the need to rethink theoretical perspectives and to apply new research methods. The chapters in this volume aim to contribute to this discussion through conceptual and/or empirical research. Drawing on different theoretical and methodological frameworks, they offer insights into diverse translation and interpreting situations, in a number of different countries and cultures, and their consequences for individual and collective cognition. Originally published as special issue of Translation Spaces 5:1 (2016).
Book Synopsis Reembedding Translation Process Research by : Ricardo Muñoz Martín
Download or read book Reembedding Translation Process Research written by Ricardo Muñoz Martín and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reembedding Translation Process Research is a rich collection of empirical research papers investigating important new facets of the relationship between translation and cognition. The common thread running through the collection is the notion of “re-embedding” the acts of translating and interpreting—and the ways we understand them. That is, they all aim to re-situate these acts within what we now know about the brain, the powerful relationship of brain and body, and the complex interaction between cognition and the environment in which it is embedded. Each chapter focuses on a particular aspect of the overall notion of re-embedding, thereby expanding the breadth of empirical research about translating. This book refuses Descartes' distinction between mind and brain, and reaffirms the highly dynamic, emergent, and interactive nature of cognitive processes in translation. The overarching conclusion is that translation studies should reconsider, re-embed, any model of translation processes that arises without properly accommodating the interdependence of brain, body, and environment in the emergence of cognition.

Book Synopsis Advances in Cognitive Translation Studies by : Ricardo Muñoz Martín
Download or read book Advances in Cognitive Translation Studies written by Ricardo Muñoz Martín and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-11-18 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the latest theoretical and empirical advances in cognitive translation studies. It involves the modes of written translation, interpreting, sight translation, and computer-aided translation. In separate chapters, this book proposes a new analytical framework for studying keylogged translation processes, a framework that reconciles a sociological and a psychological approach for studying expertise in translation, and a pedagogical model of translation competence. It expands the investigation of cognitive processes by considering the role of emotional factors, reviews, and develops the effort models of interpreting as a didactic construct. The empirical studies in this book revolve around cognitive load and effort; they explore the influences of text factors (e.g., metaphors, complex lexical items, directionality) while taking into account translator factors and evaluate the user experience of computer-aided translation tools.
Book Synopsis Translation in Transition by : Arnt Lykke Jakobsen
Download or read book Translation in Transition written by Arnt Lykke Jakobsen and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Translation practice and workflows have witnessed significant changes during the last decade. New market demands to handle digital content as well as technological advances are leading this transition. The development and integration of machine translation systems have given post-editing practices a reason to be in the context of professional translation services. Translators may still work from a source text, but more often than not they are presented with already translated text involving different degrees of translation automation. This scenario radically changes the cognitive demands of translation. Technological development has inevitably influenced the translation research agenda as well. It has provided new means of penetrating deeper into the cognitive processes that make translation possible and has endorsed new concepts and theories to understand the translation process. Computational analysis of eye movements and keystroke behaviour provides us with new insights into translational reading, processes of literality, effects of directionality, similarities between inter- and intralingual translation, as well as the effects of post-editing on cognitive processes and on the quality of the final outcome. All of these themes are explored in-depth in the articles in this volume which presents new and valuable insights to anyone interested in what is currently happening in empirical, process-oriented translation research.

Book Synopsis Translation Practice in the Field by : Hanna Risku
Download or read book Translation Practice in the Field written by Hanna Risku and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2019-08-07 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents recent research that follows translators, interpreters and translation project managers into their various work contexts and environments. It extends the scope of analysis of translation research from individuals and texts to collectives in their social and material worlds. Particular attention is paid to current translation and interpreting practice, the genesis of translations, the handling and completion of translation projects in real workplaces and the factors that shape these translation/interpreting situations. Covering fields as diverse as technical and literary translation, transcreation and church interpreting, the chapters show just how varied translation and interpreting processes and workplaces can prove to be. They provide new insights into the effects of the increasing use of technology in the translation workplace and the manifold requirements placed on translators and interpreters in a heterogeneous and fast-changing field of practice. Originally published as special issue of Translation Spaces 6:1 (2017).

Book Synopsis Tapping and Mapping the Processes of Translation and Interpreting by : Sonja Tirkkonen-Condit
Download or read book Tapping and Mapping the Processes of Translation and Interpreting written by Sonja Tirkkonen-Condit and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2000-11-24 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together cognitive psychologists, interpreting scholars and translation researchers, who look at the process phenomena involved in translation and interpreting (T/I) from various linguistic vantage points. The focus is on methodology and the problems that loom large in a multidisciplinary discipline. The authors include Annette de Groot, Juliane House, Kirsten Malmkjaer and Miriam Shlesinger. The topics discussed range from simultaneous interpreting, subtitling, translating in pairs, the sub-skills involved in T/I, to expertise and management issues. Three major challenges emerge from T/I process research as it is portrayed in this book: - How to maintain a clear vision of the object of study? - How to ensure methodological sobriety? - How to transfer the emerging knowledge of expertise to translation pedagogy?
Book Synopsis Contesting Epistemologies in Cognitive Translation and Interpreting Studies by : Sandra L. Halverson
Download or read book Contesting Epistemologies in Cognitive Translation and Interpreting Studies written by Sandra L. Halverson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-30 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dynamic collection synthesizes and critically reflects on epistemological challenges and developments within Cognitive Translation and Interpreting Studies, problematizing a range of issues. These critical essays provide a means of encouraging further development by grounding new theories, stances, and best practices. The volume is a clear marker of a maturing discipline, as decades of empirical study and methodological innovation provide the backdrop for critique and debate. The volume exemplifies tendencies toward convergence and difference, while at the same time pushing against disciplinary boundaries and structures. Constructs such as expertise and process are explored, and different theories of cognition are brought to the table. A number of chapters consider what it might mean for translation to be a form of situated, or 4EA cognition, while others query interdisciplinary relationships of foundational importance to the field. Issues of methodology are also addressed in terms of their underlying philosophical assumptions and implications. This book will be of interest to scholars working at the intersection of translation and cognition, in such fields as translation studies, cognitive science, psycholinguistics, semiotics, and philosophy of science.
