Abstract:

By reviewing and summarizing the epistemic nature of interpreter education, this study reveals a unique interaction between knowledge and interpreter education. On the one hand, the interpreting process is essentially a process of knowledge reproduction and transfer, and interpreter education provides a complete set of skills to support the processing, reconstruction, and dissemination of knowledge in the interpreting process. On the other hand, interpreting knowledge has distinctive characteristics and diverse forms of expression, and interpreter education has effectively integrated the different forms of knowledge. Building on these insights, this study explores the specific pathways for the evolution of knowledge in interpreter education from three perspectives: enhancing the quality of interpreter trainers, developing interpreter training philosophy, and re-establishing the order of the interpreting community. The aim of the study is to strengthen the disciplinary positioning of Transknowletology and provide a reference for the sustainable development of interpreter education.
