In her body of research, Scarpa has successfully combined insights from a variety of approaches, from functional theories to the cultural turn and, more recently, profession-related aspects. Her approach to the study of specialised translation considers multiple dimensions (discoursal, pragmatic and service-related) and builds an organic model capable of accommodating context-based quality criteria and advances in technology. The chapters collected in the volume develop some of Scarpa’s ideas and have been authored by scholars and professionals who have established a direct dialogue with Scarpa or benefited from her insights. %K Federica Scarpa, Specialised translation studies, Researches on translation studies %G English
