Contributor(s): Muñoz Martín, Ricardo, 1962- [editor.] | Halverson, Sandra [editor.]Material type: TextTextSeries: Publisher: London ; New York : Routledge, 2021Description: 1 online resourceContent type: text | still image Media type: computer Carrier type: online resourceISBN: 9781000222807; 1000222802; 9781000222869; 1000222861; 9781000222838; 1000222837; 9780429323867; 0429323867Subject(s): Translating and interpreting -- Psychological aspects | LANGUAGE ARTS & DISCIPLINES / Translating & InterpretingDDC classification: 418.02 LOC classification: P306.2Online resources: Taylor & Francis | OCLC metadata license agreement Summary: This collection provides a snapshot of cutting-edge research in the rapidly developing area of cognitive approaches to multilingual mediated communication. The chapters cover important trends in current work, including: the increasing interaction between translation and interpreting research, the emergence of neuroscientific theories and methods, the role of emotion in translation processes, and the impact of cognitive aptitudes on translation performance. Exploring the interface with neighbouring research areas such as bilingualism, reading, and cognitive psychology, the book presents a variety of theoretical frameworks and constructs to support empirical research and theoretical development. The authors address new research areas, such as emotions and multisensory integration; apply new research constructs, such as eye-voice span; and expand the scope of cognitive translation studies to include agents other than the mediator. Documenting the growth in breadth and depth within cognitive translation and interpreting studies (CTIS) over the past decade, this is essential reading for all advanced students and researchers needing an up-to-date overview of cognitive translation and interpreting studies.
