This book offers a comprehensive and in-depth exploration of the practice of an experienced literary translator working in situ, highlighting the significance of in-depth process studies for the field. By integrating Cognitive Translation Studies (CTS) with literary translation, Borg challenges prevailing assumptions in CTS and sheds light on the value of a combined examination of cognitive and social processes in literary translation. The volume expands the scope of existing CTS studies by providing a comprehensive examination of the work of one translator and exploring a wide range of materials, from draft to finished translation. This unique model enables a deeper understanding of the actions, decisions, motivations, and work practices of individual translators, as well as their interactions with other participants in the practice of literary translation.

In making the case for in-depth process research, this innovative book appeals to students and scholars in translation and interpreting studies, particularly those with an interest in literary translation and cognitive approaches. It provides valuable insights into the dynamics of translation production and working practices, contributing to the advancement of the discipline.

Overall, this book is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the complexities and nuances of literary translation and the role of process studies in illuminating the translation process.
