In everyday language, complexity as a term is characterised by semantic fuzziness and usually describes phenomena that are difficult to assess. For disciplines that study the understanding of texts, it has proven useful to define text complexity as the set of dynamic interactions that arise when the linguistic and cultural levels of a text are activated in the process of understanding. These activations, which lead to semantic constructions and a mental model of the text, are complex and difficult to grasp, as they involve acts of contextualisation embracing linguistic, cultural and epistemic environments. This multidimensional nature of text comprehension requires an interdisciplinary research design, with text linguistics and didactics at its core. This volume aims to provide an opening answer to this desideratum by taking a decidedly interdisciplinary approach. Thus, the contributions assembled therein outline an interdisciplinary program for a line of research that interweaves complexity and comprehension and provides an introduction to the central topics of the volume.
