Multimodality is an innovative approach to representation,
communication and interaction which looks beyond language to
investigate the multitude of ways we communicate: through images,
sound and music to gestures, body posture and the use of space. The
Routledge Handbook of Multimodal Analysis, Second Edition provides
a comprehensive 'research tool kit' for multimodal analysis, with
thirty-four chapters written by leading figures in the field on a
wide range of theoretical and methodological issues. This new
edition includes twelve new chapters on theoretical and
mathodological developments, and multimodal research on digitally
mediated texts and interaction. The Handbook includes chapters on
key themes within multimodality such as technology, culture,
notions of identity, social justice and power, and macro issues
such as literacy policy. Taking a broad look at multimodality, the
contributors engage with how a variety of other theoretical
approaches have looked at multimodal communication and
representation, including visual studies, anthropology,
conversation analysis, socio-cultural theory, sociolinguistics, new
literacy studies, multimodal corpora studies, critical discourse,
semiotics and eye-tracking. Detailed multimodal analysis case
studies are also included, along with an extensive updated glossary
of key terms, to support those new to multimodality and to allow
those already engaged in multimodal research to explore the
fundamentals further. The Routledge Handbook of Multimodal Analysis
is essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students as
well as researchers involved in the study of multimodal
communication.
