Meeting Description:

'From the Unity of Italians to the Unity of Italics: the Languages of Italicity Around the World': an international conference that will be devoted to the present contribution of Italian culture to global culture. All around the world Italy speaks not one single language - the Italian language - but a plurality of verbal and non verbal languages. The variety of languages - from art to music, food, industrial design, sports - gives Italian civilization its richness, its mobility, its ability to reinvent itself. Having unified the Italians, it is now possible and necessary to understand and create a network among the 'Italics': those in the world who 'think Italian', even if they use other languages or belong to nationalities other than Italian. 

Call for Papers:

The deadline to submit a proposal is February 15, 2011. Acceptance will be notified within a week of proposal receipt. The deadline for registration after notification of acceptance is February 25.
