Abstract

Recently, with the deepening of globalization, the cross-cultural communication is increasing and interpreters are badly needed. Although interpreters are a crucial element in cross-cultural communication, they are placed in a subordinate and obedient position and their subjectivity and subjectivity consciousness are intentionally or unintentionally neglected in real interpreting activity.
This paper aims to re-recognize and re-define the role of interpreters through analyzing interpreters’ subjectivity consciousness in business escort interpreting. Through the analysis of some specific interpreting activities, this paper will show how interpreters’ subjectivity consciousness is implemented and conclude how can interpreters function better to contribute to the success of interpreting activity guided by such subjectivity consciousness.

Keywords  interpreting, business escort, the role of interpreters, subjectivity consciousness

They can be seen in almost all fields and are hired in the need of establishing conversation with people in different countries and cultures. From formal and large conference interpreting to small and private business escorting interpreting, interpreters are always playing their role in those small or big occasions. It can even be said that any cross-cultural communication activities cannot continue without the work and efforts of interpreters and the participation of interpreters is necessary and inevitable since with the deepening of globalization, barriers in cross-cultural communication is more various than ever before and to clear or reduce misunderstandings between participated parties in communication.
