Conference aims and scope:

Affiliated with 1 Decembrie 1918 University of Alba Iulia, Romania, situated
in Central Europe, at the crossroads between Romance, Slavic, German and
Hungarian cultures and languages, the CIEL Centre has been long activating in
the field of language education, intercultural awareness-raising and active
citizenship promotion. Its members, academics, practitioners and researchers
alike,understand linguistic and intercultural education as paramount to
constructing a global citizenship of culturally competent and aware
individuals who display cultural insights and a sense of belonging to the
humanity at large.

CLIE-2017 aims at investigating the intrinsic relationship between language
and culture and the multifariousness of their interrelatedness, in particular
from a pragma-semantic approach. The two-way interdependence and synergies
between language and culture are determinants of the extent to which culture
is included in meaning creation, influencing the speakers’ perceptions of
culture as reflected in our exchanges about the world surrounding us. By
delving into the semantics of a language we may reach an understanding of
cultural meanings. Along the same lines, this could reveal the implicit
suppositions which are connected to them and which are implicitly understood
and shared by the community members, but not accessible to outsiders.

Conference Topics:

- Intercultural pragmatics and cultural linguistics
- Discourse analysis, rhetoric and pragmatics
- Semantics and stylistics
- Corpus and computational linguistics
- Second language acquisition
- Foreign/second language teaching and teacher education
- Sociolinguistics
- Contrastive linguistics
- Translating, interpreting and mediation
- Intercultural business communication.

Other topics may include more specialised issues:

- The importance of languages in integrating an international and
intercultural dimension in the design and content of university curricula, as
well as in the teaching/learning processes
- The role and status of translation and the translator/transcommunicator in
nowadays globalised and technologised societies and cultures
- The influence of language contact on shaping social, political, economic and
cultural discourses and identities, etc.
