Intercultural pragmatics addresses one of the major issues of human
communication in the globalized world: how do people interact with
each other in a language other than their native tongue, and with
native speakers of the language of interaction? Bringing together a
globally-representative team of scholars, this Handbook provides an
authoritative overview to this fascinating field of study, as well
as a theoretical framework. Chapters are grouped into 5 thematic
areas: theoretical foundation, key issues in Intercultural
Pragmatics research, the interface between Intercultural Pragmatics
and related disciplines, Intercultural Pragmatics in different
types of communication, and language learning. It addresses key
concepts and research issues in Intercultural Pragmatics, and will
trigger fresh lines of enquiry and generate new research questions.
Comprehensive in its scope, it is essential reading not only for
scholars of pragmatics, but also of discourse analysis, cognitive
linguistics, communication, sociolinguistics, linguistic
anthropology, and second language teaching and learning.
