Acknowledging connections between Reading and Translation Studies: a bibliographical review

This article presents a bibliographical review of cognitive process-oriented research in translation, focusing on the intersection of the areas of Translation Studies (TS) and Reading. The objective of the study is to identify points of contact between the fields in terms of theoretical and methodological aspects. A broader account of process-oriented research in TS is carried out (Ferreira; Schwieter, 2014; Hurtado Albir et al.; 2015 among others), followed by a review of reading and translation (Shreve  et al.,1993, and others). Overall, findings indicate that task purpose and translators’ experience influence reading in translation, yet reading, translation, and reading during translation entail parallel processes of a different nature that are associated in reading during translation.
