What constitutes “progress” in Translation Studies?
Translation Studies is sometimes taken to be an applied science, sometimes a hermeneutic discipline, and sometimes an empirical human science. Each of these views has a different idea of what would be understood as progress: different criteria. We do not have a shared paradigm in TS, but we might one day arrive at one by bringing together different kinds of explanation.
