Il processo della revisione e la qualità del testo finale: alcune riflessioni basate su un manuale di infermieristica
Magris, Marella
1999
Abstract
This article presents a case study of translation revision. The author analyses the revised transtation of a handbook on nursing using an adaptation of the
psycholinguistic model proposed by Hayes et al. (1987) in order to investigate
the relationships between the reviser’s cognitive processes and the quality of the
end product. In particular, three factors are analysed: the development of the
reviser’s task definition; the relationship between the quality of the translation
and that of the revision; and the reviser's tolerance margin. The results highlight
therefore that revision is a non-linear and non-uniform process, which is aflected
mostly by the way the task definition changes as the revision proceeds.
