This concise volume offers an accessible introduction to state-of-the-art artificial intelligence (AI) language models, providing a platform for their use in textual interpretation across the humanities and social sciences.The book outlines the affordances of new technologies for textual analysis, which has historically employed established approaches within the humanities. Neuman, Danesi, and Vilenchik argue that these different forms of analysis are indeed complementary, demonstrating the ways in which AI-based perspectives echo similar theoretical and methodological currents in traditional approaches while also offering new directions for research. The volume showcases examples from a wide range of texts, including novels, television shows, and films to illustrate the ways in which the latest AI technologies can be used for "dialoguing" with textual characters and examining textual meaning coherence. Illuminating the potential of AI language models to both enhance and extend research on the interpretation of texts, this book will appeal to scholars interested in cognitive approaches to the humanities in such fields as literary studies, discourse analysis, media studies, film studies, psychology, and artificial intelligence.

This textbook provides a comprehensive overview of the processes, principles, and constraints of project management in the translation industry. It offers readers clear insights into modern-day project management practices specific to translation services and an understanding of critical inter-related aspects of the process, drawing on key works in business studies on management, aspects of economics relevant to project management, and international standards on project management processes.Developed on the back of a successful module titled Intercultural Project Management, Translation Project Management provides a coherent account of the entire translation project management lifecycle from start to finish and pays considerable attention to the factors influencing decision- making at various stages and how external forces shape the way in which a translation project plays out. Through an array of real-world case studies, it offers readers opportunities to explore, analyse, and engage with six fundamental project constraints: cost, time, scope, quality, benefits, and risk. Each chapter offers discussion points, possible assignments, and guided further reading. This is an essential textbook both for all project management courses within translation studies programmes and for professional translators and translation service providers.Additional resources are available on the Routledge Translation Studies Portal.
