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!
