ABSTRACT

Translation is an important link to promote cultural exchange and dissemination, and education is the top priority of all countries' development. In the wave of foreign translation of Chinese academic works, translating China's educational works is an important part of making the world understand China and spreading China culture. The essence of translation is to study the conversion between two languages. As a discipline related to language use, the relationship between translation and context is bound to be very close. The goal of translation is to seek the equivalence between the source language and the target language in meaning, and the meaning is embodied by the words and sentences in the text. Translation studies have gone through the pre disciplinary, interdisciplinary and interdisciplinary development stages, with various theories emerging frequently, branches emerging one after another, and translation studies entering the "post disciplinary" era. It must reflect on itself in order to adjust the direction of discipline construction in the process of integration, criticism and construction. "Meta theory" is helpful to deal with the impact of the knowledge production model involved in disciplines, adhere to the discipline ontology, and make the discipline construction move from self-consciousness to self consistency, that is, reflect on the meta theory in the design of the translation discipline pedigree based on meta theory, demonstrate its theoretical presupposition and premise, and reconstruct the conceptual model.
