Wordplay involving several linguistic codes represents an important
modality of ludic language. It is attested in different epochs,
communicative situations, genres, and contexts of use. The
translation of wordplay, which is generally seen as a challenging
enterprise, illustrates another dimension of crossing linguistic
borders in wordplay. The third volume of the series The Dynamics of
Wordplay unites contributions from different disciplines which
study the creative and playful use of elements from different
languages and the transfer of ludic language into other linguistic
systems. It sheds light on the multi-dimensionality, special
linguistic make-up, and specific interactive potential of wordplay
at the interface of different languages and cultures. The
individual studies collected in this volume will be of interest to
scholars from different scientific fields, such as linguistics and
literary studies as well as cultural and media studies.
