Part 4 offers a multidimensional understanding of how meaning is reframed across cultural and linguistic boundaries through textual communication practices, including the use of metaphors, queer translation, and literary discourse analysis. Part 5 evaluates best practices for teaching and assessing in person and online intercultural learning through study abroad programs, digitally mediated cultural exchanges, and telecollaborative projects. Part 6 brings together the accumulated evidence to suggest four main multicultural communication practices and propose 100 research questions for further inquiry. Due to its focus on theory, research, and practice, this book appeals to a mixed audience of applied linguists, researchers, translators, teachers, and other professionals with varying expertise in intercultural and multicultural communication skills development and a wide range of scholarly and teaching interests and perspectives.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2026-04-07\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783032081421\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-032-08143-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 307\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Nature Switzerland","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44480518750348,"sku":"9783032081421","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783032081421_3adf7c7c-2f95-4696-8c40-0e8939d06a7a.jpg?v=1777378203","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783032081421","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
