Abstract
In this special issue introduction, we briefly discuss the history of multilingual writing research before we examine the research presented in the issue in light of three cross-cutting themes: visuality, materiality, and creativity. We conclude with a summary of the papers and the insights they add to our understanding of shifting multilingual literacy practices in the twenty-first century.
