How do people organize their body movement and talk when they
interact with one another in the material world? How do they
coordinate linguistic structures with bodily resources (such as
gaze and gesture) to bring about coherent and intelligible courses
of action? How are physical settings, artifacts, technologies and
non-linguistic sign-systems implicated in social interaction and
shared cognition? This volume brings together advanced work by
leading international scholars who share video-based research
methods that integrate semiotic, linguistic, sociological,
anthropological and cognitive science perspectives with detailed,
microanalytic observations. Collectively they provide a coherent
framework for analyzing the production of meaning and the
organization of social interaction in the complex and heterogeneous
settings that are characteristic of modern life. Embodied
Interaction is indispensable for anyone interested in the study of
language and social interaction. This volume will be a point of
reference for future research on multimodality in human
communication and action.
