Meeting Description:

27th European Systemic Functional Linguistics Conference: Systemic Functional
Linguistics at the Crossroads: Intercultural and Contrastive Descriptions of
Language
University of Salamanca, Spain
29 June - 01 July, 2017

>From a systemic functional perspective, language is considered essentially a
probabilistic system. An important part of the meaning of any feature is its
relative probability in relation to other mutually defining features and,
therefore, language description is intimately related to the (un)expectedness
of the behaviour, presence, absence, etc. of linguistic phenomena. However,
globalization is dynamically pervading cultural and historical groups,
identities and languages to an unprecedented extent and thus it is not
surprising that cultural differences, hybridizing processes and diversity are
challenging our knowledge and our expectations on the probability and extent
of linguistic phenomena and their behaviour.

Thematic Panel Sessions:

- SFL at Intercultural Crossroads
- SFL at Contrastive Crossroads
- SFL at Crossroads in Linguistics and Beyond
- SFL at the Cutting Edge of Descriptions of Language

Colloquia:

- 1er Coloquio ‘La LSF en/del Español’ / 1st Colloquium: ‘SFL in/of Spanish’
(Language of this colloquium: Spanish) (please check the conference website
for this CFP)
- 2nd Colloquium ‘Empirical Evidence and Theoretical Assumptions in SFL’
(Language of this colloquium: English) (please check the conference website
for this CFP)

Confirmed Plenary Speakers:

Jorge Arús Hita (Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain)
Tom Bartlett (Cardiff University, UK)
Adriana Bolívar (Universidad Central de Venezuela, Venezuela)
Elsa Ghio (Universidad Nacional del Litoral, Argentina)
Mick O’Donnell (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Spain)

Contributions are welcome for the above thematic strands and colloquia,
albeit, as in previous conferences, papers with a systemic functional focus
will also be considered even if they do not address the conference themes.

contain a statement of the aim of the contribution, and should make clear how
the paper relates to previous and/or current work within SFL and to the panel
and/or colloquium chosen. Abstracts should provide a description of the main
contents and results to be presented.
