- Abstract
In the last decades, cognitive science has experienced some major conceptual and methodological changes with regard to how intelligence, especially the function of the human mind, is studied and understood. This chapter offers an overview of recent, situated approaches to cognitive science—namely situated, embodied, distributed, embedded and extended cognition—and seeks both to sketch their historical roots and motivations and to demonstrate their consequences for the study of translation and interpreting. The chapter will attempt to demonstrate the underlying theory behind these orientations, their conceptual foci and the consequences of their application to specific research questions, thus embedding them in the Cognitive Translation Studies context.
