Outside of Williamsburg, I think there's are a few old plantation homes (like Gunston Hall and Mt Vernon in Virginia) and I believe in New England there are also a few. Outside of the States, I don't know whether they exist or not. | |

| Jul 25, 2021 at 0:13 | comment | added | A.Ellett | @aguijonazo An historical interpreter is a cross between actor and docent (museum guide). In Colonial Williamsburg, for example, they dress in 17th century garb. Some refuse to break character (if you talk about modern things they'll look at you like you're speaking gibberish). One of their roles is help visitors learn about life in colonial days. They're quite knowledgeable. In other situations, they'll re-enact historical events and battles meticulously down to the smallest details. I worked in Williamsburg many many years ago--hence my famliariity with the concept. | |

| Jul 24, 2021 at 21:54 | comment | added | A.Ellett | Additionally, there are quite a few active historical interpreters on youtube. They probably don't speak Japanese; quite a few have connections with the tourism industry in Colonial America (such as Williamsburg). It might be worth looking some of these folk up, getting to know them, and asking them whether they know who you should inquire with about obtaining documents in Japanese on historical interpretation. Obviously if you just ask them "how do you say historical interpreter in Japanese?", the conversation isn't going to go anywhere. This will require a time investment on your part. | |
| Jul 24, 2021 at 21:45 | comment | added | A.Ellett | Have you done any research on this? Short of that, you're asking for a translation and this site is not a translation site. I would recommend reaching out to places like Colonial Williamsburg where historical interpretation is a key feature. While I haven't been able to find anything on their website in Japanese, I would suggest calling them and asking, "I'm interested in any Japanese language brochures you have explaining historical interpretation. Could you share some with me?" I'm sure the folks there would be quite happy to help you. | |
