This comprehensive book delves into the realm of Relevance Theory (RT), offering a cognitive-pragmatic framework for understanding translation and interpreting (T&I). By closely engaging T&I activities with the mental processes of speakers, listeners, writers, and readers, RT provides a more comprehensive account of communication that goes beyond traditional approaches.
The volume provides a comprehensive overview of the cognitive approach to communication adopted by RT, emphasizing the distinction between explicit and implicit content and the interplay between thoughts and utterances. It begins by outlining key concepts and theories in RT pragmatics, charting the development of their disciplinary relationship with work from T&I studies.
Chapters in the book draw on practical examples from a diverse range of T&I contexts, including news media, scientific materials, literary translation, audiovisual translation, conference interpreting, and legal interpreting. These examples serve to illustrate the practical applications of RT pragmatics and its potential to enhance our understanding of T&I processes.
Furthermore, the book explores the wide-ranging implications of RT pragmatics-inspired work and presents a vision for future research in translation and interpreting. It will be of interest to scholars in T&I studies and pragmatics, as well as anyone with an interest in the cognitive and pragmatic aspects of communication.
