Meeting Description:

Faculty of Arts, Charles University, invites to Gesture-Sign Workshop Prague
2019 that will take place on 16-17 May 2019. The workshop is organized by the
Empirical Perspectives on Communication and Cognition research group and the
Czech Association for Language and Cognition with support of the European
Regional Development Fund-Project ''Creativity and Adaptability as Conditions
of the Success of Europe in an Interrelated World'' (No.
CZ.02.1.01/0.0/0.0/16_019/0000734). 

The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers who share the focus
on multimodality but come from different areas. In particular, its goal is to
provide an opportunity for a discussion between:

- gesture researchers and sign linguists
- researchers who work with experimental (or generally quantitative) methods
and those who approach the study of multimodality qualitatively

Talks will be given by invited speakers - both gesture researchers and sign
linguists. Alongside keynote and guest talks, posters will be presented on
both days of the workshop. The workshop programme will be concluded by a
general discussion.

Keynote Speakers:
Gerardo Ortega (University of Birmingham)
Cristóbal Pagán Cánovas (Universidad de Murcia)
Pamela Perniss (Universität Köln)
Jürgen Streeck (University of Texas)

Discussant:
Jan P. de Ruiter (Tufts University)

Registration is free of charge.

Organizing committee:
Eva Lehečková - Jakub Jehlička - Andrea Hudáková - Josef Fulka
