    This book is part of a six-volume international series entitled
    */Communicating Otherness/*, [Luísa Magalhães, UCP & Enrique
    Castelló-Mayo, USC (Editors-in-chief)], whose**theme is the
    development of the concept of Otherness, hereby presented within an
    interdisciplinary perspective that combines Communication Studies
    with disciplines from the realm of Art and Humanities, Philosophy,
    Sociology, and Cultural Studies. We aim at entangling this concept
    with the position of the Other. Hence, we propose interpreting the
    process of othering from within, thereby switching the traditional
    perspectives related to the use of power (by the Self towards the
    Other). In so doing, we will investigate the realm of the Other (as
    transformed into alternative Self) in multidisciplinary contexts of
    research.

    The book will be developed in various strands. The strand of
    Humanities will seek to develop the classical imagery of otherness
    within different formats and representations, as well as to address
    the problems of hospitality in contexts that imply the entrance of
    someone or something anew in ordinary life. The Cultural strand will
    approach the problem of the contact with this new knowledge, taking
    the example of developing scientific knowledge, as unbeknownst,
    challenging, and innovative material that must be shared and
    understood by non-expert, ordinary individuals. Considering the
    permanent need for learning and understanding the Other’s knowledge,
    the Philosophical strand will consider the possibilities of
    establishing relationships between unacquainted individuals and will
    acknowledge the role of pedagogy in promoting the understanding and
    developing of emotional behaviours that integrate and socialize self
    and others.
