From i-land at listserv.linguistlist.org Wed Apr 3 14:23:59 2019 From: i-land at listserv.linguistlist.org (I-LanD Interuniversity Research Centre) Date: Wed, 03 Apr 2019 20:23:59 +0200 Subject: [I-LanD Research Centre] [Reminder] LANGUAGING DIVERSITY INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE 2019_University of Zaragoza_Teruel Message-ID: Dear I-Landers, We are writing to remind you that you still have a month (until 3 MAY) to submit your abstract to the 6th edition of the LANGUAGING DIVERSITY INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE (University of Zaragoza, TERUEL, Spain, 24-27 September 2019). Don't miss your chance to showcase your research in a highly PERSUASIVE context (PERSUASION being the main focus of this year's edition :-)). LD6 builds on the themes of the previous editions (i.e. diversity, alterity, power, social class and globalisation) to propose a research strand linked to persuasion, the pragmatic or communicative intention whereby identity is enacted, power communicated and societal patterns reproduced. In LD6, we set out to cast light on the intricacies of persuasive discourse and the manifold reactions it may engender in today’s globalised and multicultural societies. At the core of this endeavour is a genuine willingness and commitment to tease out the nature of persuasion in diverse contexts (e.g. art, education, business, sport, companies, the private sphere, etc.), through diverse channels (e.g. face-to-face interaction, on-line communication, published articles, performances, etc.), and as more or less relevant to diverse identities (e.g. linguistic, political, gendered, etc.). We are looking forward to a varied programme and invite abstracts in any of the conference languages (ENGLISH, SPANISH, FRENCH, and ITALIAN) for FULL PRE-CONFERENCE WORKSHOPS, PAPERS, POSTERS, short work-in-progress reports in the PECHA KUCHA format, as well as PANELS adhering to any of the conference's broad research questions.
