Meeting Description:

The Oita Text Forum (OTF) is pleased to invite you to participate in Text &
Context OTF Workshop 8.

Text & Context OTF Workshop 8 focuses on fundamental elements in understanding
the relationship between text and context. OTF views ‘text’ as not restricted
to the written or spoken mode of communication. ‘Text’ is meant to be any mode
of meaning representation such as paintings, sculptures, film, architecture,
dance, music, etc.

Specifically, we may explore questions such as:

- What is the relationship between text and the context of situation?
- What can we say about (the context of) culture in relation to text
generation/creation/composition?  And how does the former affect the latter?
- What is the relationship between the context of situation and material
situational setting?
- How do texts evolve?
- How are text structures (or schemata) stored in memory? 
- How does the retrieval of information from memory create a text?
- What knowledge can be recognised in the psychological process of text
generation/creation/composition and what stimulus retrieves it from memory?
- What neuropsychological processes are involved in text generation/creation/
composition?


Call for Papers:

The OTF Workshop welcomes scholars from different disciplinary backgrounds and
hybrid theories of text generation/creation/composition.

You may present a 30-minute long paper (a 20-minute presentation, followed by
a 10-minute discussion) or a 60-minute workshop.

Please send a 500-word abstract (if you wish to present a paper) or a 700-word
abstract (if you wish to present a workshop) to keizo-nanri AT oita-u.ac.jp.
Workshops must be interactive and involve the audience, and abstracts must
clearly outline how the workshop will proceed. The deadline for abstract
submission is 30 November 2016.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Indiana University and
as such can receive donations through Indiana University Foundation. We
also collect donations via eLinguistics Foundation, a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization with the federal tax number 45-4211155. Either
way, the donations can be offset against your federal and sometimes your
state tax return (U.S. tax payers only). For more information visit the
IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that
they will match any gift you make to a non-profit organization.
Normally this entails your contacting your human resources department
and sending us a form that the Indiana University Foundation fills in
and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative
procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if
your company operates such a program.


Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
