Quelques repères épistémologiques pour une approche cognitive de la traduction spécialisée – Application à la biomédecine
This paper presents some key researchers and theories that open the way for new types of research in translatology using a cognitive approach: Spinoza in philosophy, Damasio and Edelman in neurosciences, the Gestalt and the work of Lakoff, Talmy and Fauconnier in cognitive semantics. The main concepts will be placed within the cognitive science framework and we will explain why they are important for the practice of translation as well as in research. A few results taken from our work on conceptualisation modes in biomedicine will illustrate the proposed approach.
