| dc.description.abstract | This special issue of Multilingual
Margins is an excellent example
of how the guiding concepts of a
project are put into practice. The framing
of the Re-imagining Multilingualisms
project is presented here in what can be
termed an appropriately rhizomic, rather
than linear structure; this is achieved
through the strategic interleaving of
theoretical, creative, collaborative and
critically reflective perspectives. The title
image of interconnected lines of coloured
thread pointing to multilingual versions
of the same concept, ‘beauty’, reflects
this, while the title of the issue, The
Cat’s Cradle, recalls the childhood activity
where an everyday object – like a piece
of string – can be transformed through
skilful fingerwork and reimagined as, of
all things, the cat’s cradle! | en_US |
