Morphology
reinterpretation = reinterpret + interpretation (transparent) = re + interpret + ation
The noun is a regular and fully predictable nominalization of the verb 'reinterpret'.
Etymology
Reinterpretation breaks into re- meaning 'again' and interpret meaning 'to explain' or 'give meaning', just like rewrite and redo use re- to mean 'again'. So a reinterpretation is when someone explains something again in a new way, giving it a different meaning.
