      abstract = {This book offers a unique window to the study of  im/politeness by looking at a translation perspective,  which offers a different set of data and allows further  understanding of the phenomenon. In the arena of real-life  translation practice, the workings of im/politeness are  renegotiated in a different cultural context and thus  pragmatically oriented cross-cultural differences become  more concrete and tangible. The book focuses on the  language pair English and Greek, a strategic choice with  Greek as a less widely spoken language and English as a  global language. The two languages also differ in their  politeness orientation in certain genres, which allows for  a fruitful comparison. The volume focuses on press  translation first, then translation of academic texts and  translation for the stage, and finally audiovisual  translation (mainly subtitles). These genres highlight a  public, an interactional, and a multimodal dimension in the  workings of im/politeness.},
