Proposals are sought for a forthcoming edited volume devoted to impoliteness encoded by a variety of languages and 
expressed in language data retrieved from different media, such as television, radio (shows, interviews, live talks, etc.), 
Internet, TV, DVD and cinema films. The book is planned to be published with an international publisher. The total number 
of words of each paper proposal should not exceed 6000 words (including references).
