Çeviri Yorumbilimi Çevirmenin Anlama Süreci

Çeviri eyleminin yorumbilimsel bir süreç olduğu hemen her çeviribilimsel çalışmada dile getirilir. Ancak bu ifadeler genellikle bir ya da birkaç cümleyle sınırlı kalır. Alanda, özellikle Türkiye’de1, yorumbilim ve çeviri bağıntısını modern çeviribilim bakış açısıyla ele alan kapsamlı bir çalışmanın eksikliği hissedilmektedir.
