This volume contains a collection of papers which discuss the contributions of cognitive linguistics to translation. It constitutes the first attempt to unify previous isolated works on both disciplines. The papers compiled in the present volume purport to investigate the many fruitful manners in which cognitive linguistics can expand further on the formulation of a cognitive translation theory. They provide a picture of the different theoretical and applied models which originate at the crossroads between both disciplines, and suggest ways in which they can take advantage of the synergy between them.
