Meeting Description:

As part of the series of research seminars which will contribute to the Research Network we are inviting interested scholars to a seminar to be held at the University of Cardiff on 28 March 2012 entitled 'The Social Semiotics of Popular Journalism: A Long View'. It aims to bring together scholars from media and journalism studies, social sciences, linguistics and English to consider the important of semiotics as a tool for exploring the content and context of Anglo-American newspapers between 1833 and 1988. There is no charge for the event and there will be a number of keynote speakers to be announced at a later date. 

Call for Papers:

As part of the series of research seminars which will contribute to the Research Network we are inviting interested scholars to submit proposals of 300 words for a seminar to be held at the University of Cardiff on 28 March 2012 entitled 'The Social Semiotics of Popular Journalism: A Long View'. It aims to bring together scholars from media and journalism studies, social sciences, linguistics and English to consider the important of semiotics as a tool for exploring the content and context of Anglo-American newspapers between 1833 and 1988. There is no charge for the event and there will be a number of keynote speakers to be announced at a later date. 

The proposals should be empirically-grounded and might draw upon textual analysis, discourse analysis, the political economy of newspapers, ethnography or combinations of these and/or other methods, to say something concrete about the nature of life in the societies represented by popular newspapers during this period. We plan to publish the best of the papers presented on the day in a special edition of the international, peer-reviewed journal Social Semiotics. 

Please send your proposals or any questions you may have by the 30 November 2011 to the Research Assistant for the project Clare Burke:

Seminar Organizers:

Professor Martin Conboy, University of Sheffield and Dr David Machin, University of Cardiff
