The Origins, Evolution, and Research Paradigms of Transknowletology

doi:10.3969/j.issn.1674-8921.2025.06.020

Abstract

Abstract:

Transknowletology is a new achievement of China’s localized translation theory, which approaches translation from the perspective of human knowledge, offering vast theoretical and practical spaces. By tracing the theoretical foundation, historical background, and developmental trajectory of Transknowletology, and conducting a paradigm genealogy, it is possible to reveal its role in promoting the transformation of contemporary translation paradigms and the reconstruction of discourse so as to clarify the research paradigm of Transknowletology. This theory has formed a completely new research paradigm and provides new directions for translation research and practice, reflecting the “theoretical confidence” of contemporary Chinese translation studies.

Key words: Transknowletology, translation theory, paradigm shift, discourse reconstruction
