Abstract:
This volume focuses on multimodality in various communicative settings, with
special attention to how non-verbal elements reinforce and add meaning to
verbal expressions. The first part of the book explores issues related to the
use of multimodal resources in educational interactions and English language
classroom teaching, also involving learners with disabilities. The second
part, on the other hand, investigates multimodality as a key component of
communication that takes place in different specialized domains and genres.
The book reflects a variety of methodological approaches that are grounded in
both quantitative and qualitative techniques. These include multimodal
discourse analysis, multimodal transcription, and multimodal annotation
software capable of representing the interplay of different semiotic modes,
such as speech, intonation, direction of gaze, facial expressions, gestures
and spatial positioning of interlocutors.
The research collected here highlights the increasingly important role of
multimodality in communication across different genres and communicative
contexts, and offers new perspectives on how to exploit multimodal resources
to enhance the learning of English for both general and specific purposes.
