Here, we will especíally insist on the importance of our subject within the discipline. Finally, we will comment on sorne of the publícations that deal with methodology in order to highlight a number of the problems inherent to research in history of translation. We will conclude this work with a proposal that establishes a series of phases that are unavoidable in all historical research and that may be considered equally valid in history of interpreting as, despite the differences, both types of historical research draw on the common ground of interlinguistic mediation.
