Why is it important?
The chapter looks at cognitive processes related to the unpacking and repacking of translation units in a process of meaning construal involving instances of grammatical shifts related to processes of (de)metaphorization in translation.
Perspectives
By analysing the performance of two translators working from German into English, triangulating data obtained from key-logging, eye-tracking, and retrospective verbalizations, it offers a methodological framework for the exploration of the product/process interface in translation.
