Cognitive research in translation and interpreting has reached a critical threshold of maturity that is triggering rapid expansion along exciting new paths that potentially lead to deeper connections with other disciplines. Innovation and Expansion in Translation Process Research reflects this broadening scope and reach, emphasizing ongoing methodological innovations, diversification of research topics and questions, and rich interactions with adjacent fields of research. The contributions to the volume can be grouped within four loosely defined themes: advances in traditional topics in translation process research, including problems in translation, translation competence or expertise, and specialization of translators; advances in research into the emotional or affective aspects of translating and translator training; innovations in machine translation and post-editing; expansion of cognitively-oriented translation studies to include editing processes and reception studies. This timely volume highlights the burgeoning growth, diversification, and connectivity of translation process research.

“This book is a welcome addition to the expanding literature on TPR: it demonstrates innovative ways of conducting research in TPR and raises the profile of the field.”

Sarah Berthaud, Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology, in JoSTrans, Issue 31 - 2019

“Thanks to the concerted efforts of the editors and contributors, this book suggests new pathways for future empirical and experimental investigations of translation processes. To conclude, its innovative methodologies and extended research topics make the volume a useful reference for TPR graduate students and researchers.”
