Meeting Description:

The special theme of this edition of the International Pragmatics Conferences is 'Language and Adaptability'. The notion of adaptability is meant to capture a perspective on pragmatics that highlights language as a variable and dynamic resource for human communicative behavior. It covers a focus on the dynamic interplay between structural choices and context in the everyday practice of interactional language use, conversational or otherwise, private or public, informal or institutional. It also addresses the societal functioning of everyday language use in the wider context of linguistic diversity and change.

Venue: Buildings K and R of the City Campus (Stadscampus) of the University of Antwerp, Belgium.

Conference Chair: Jef Verschueren (University of Antwerp)

Call for Papers:

Pragmatics studies language as a variable and dynamic resource for human communicative behavior. The notion of adaptability is meant to capture this perspective. As a special theme for this conference, it may be used to highlight two dimensions of language use and pragmatic research:

1. The dynamic interplay between structural choices and context in the everyday practice of interactional language use, conversational or otherwise, private or public, informal or institutional.

2. The societal functioning of everyday language use in the wider context of linguistic diversity and change.

As always, the conference is open to all other pragmatics-related topics as well (where pragmatics is conceived broadly as a cognitive, social, and cultural perspective on language and communication).

(For more information, see ‘Theme’ on the website.)

Deadlines:

- The deadline for panel proposals: 1 June 2014 (unlike on earlier occasions, there is no second round).
- Contributions to accepted panels, and individual submissions for posters and lectures must be sent in by 15 October 2014.
