'...[The book’s] innovative potential of ‘cross-disciplinary conversations’ (p. 16), providing insights into intercultural communication and challenging prevailing beliefs of approaching literature from the perspectives of applied linguistics, literary and cultural studies as well as foreign language education/ methodology (Fremdsprachendidaktik). With their compilation of articles investigating ‘the broader theoretical and practical implications of such an intercultural approach in SLTE’ (p. 19), the editors give a fresh impetus to the first, often university-based phase of teacher training and promote an interculturally reflective preservice teacher education.'
