Embracing Technology: Developments in Research Focuses and Methods of TPR and Its TheoriesA Review of Explorations in Empirical Translation Process Research

Explorations in Empirical Translation Process Research published in 2021 is an exemplary collection of studies on Translation Process Research (TPR) featured by technology. It includes four parts, ranging from translation technology, quality and effort to translation entropy, and from translation segmentation and difficulty to TPR in post-cognitivism. It profiles the new developments of TPR in research focuses by highlighting the research on subtitle post-editing (PE) effort and the relationship between translation unit and difficulty, and in research methods by featuring its further application of CRITT TPR-DB and some new PE effort measurements. It also presents theoretical reflections on TPR drawing on the theory of affordances in post-cognitivism. Therefore, the book considerably promotes TPR in both empirical and theoretical approaches.
