Abstract:

Interaction is a prominent part of our everyday life and experience; daily
reality is constructed within the interactions that individuals establish with
those around them, with whom they share experiences in a concrete context.
Objects, phenomena and individuals permanently influence each other through
this dynamic process. The authors of this volume engage in an on-going
interpretative process of defining this influence, giving considerable
attention to the way participants to interaction try to understand each other,
to interpret each other’s activity and prove this in an explicit or implicit
way through a variety of semiotic codes (verbal, nonverbal or paraverbal). The
authors, implicitly, address the question: how do social actors (in their
quality of translators, writers, painters or teachers) see the world around
and the interactions between its constituent parts/activities/processes?

The primary goal of Perspectives on Interaction is to bring together concerns,
approaches, interpretations and analyses on the proposed topic. The authors,
members of a young research group (“Cultural Spaces”), have examined various
aspects through which interaction manifests itself in social practices,
linguistics, translation studies, didactics and literary discourse. This has
made possible the gathering of the material under four headings which
constitute the chapters of the book: Translation as Interaction; Aspects of
Social Interaction; Texts and Representations in Interaction; Interactive
Practices in Literary Discourse. Ideas have been organized around some
important key points: communication, action, interaction, competence,
performance, linguistic and nonlinguistic signs.

The volume will appeal to researchers and students working within the fields
of translation, education, arts, discourse and literature, and offers
inspiring topics and relevant research.
