Abstract

In the past 20 years (2003-2023), many scholars have conducted various studies on E-C translation teaching for undergraduates of English majors based on different theories and perspectives. Through these studies, researchers have clarified the basic development of E-C translation teaching in China. These studies are interdisciplinary and they demonstrate the characteristic of multiple perspectives. This paper reviews the E-C translation teaching for undergraduates of English majors in China in the past 20 years based on representative studies. We found that E-C translation teaching research for undergraduates of English majors mainly emphasize three aspects: the interdisciplinary study of translation teaching, the problems in translation teaching, and the coping strategies in response to them. Once the weaknesses of E-C translation teaching for undergraduates of English majors are solved, translation teaching can be improved.
