Meeting Description:

On behalf of the LLA Organising Committee, it is our pleasure to announce the
Call for Papers containing information on the forthcoming international
interdisciplinary conference Language, Literature, Alternatives, organized by
the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Niš, which will be held on April 15
and 16, 2021. 

We are repeating the Call, already sent in 2019, for the conference that was
supposed to take place in April 2020. The situation with the covid-19 pandemic
left us then with no alternatives, so the planned conference had to be
postponed. However, we rose to the challenge of continuing the tradition of
our conferences with the general title Language, Literature,…, so the 2021
event, completely in accordance with its title Language, Literature,
Alternatives will have a different, alternative format, and will be organized
as an online conference.

For over a decade, our conferences under the encompassing title Language,
Literature,... focused not only on the topics that are relevant for linguistic
and literary studies, but also on socially significant phenomena. Although the
conferences have always been thematically coherent, this never meant the
uniformity of theoretical and methodological approaches; on the contrary, the
aim was to view the given topics from many different, alternative
perspectives. In an attempt to support such alternative perspectives, which,
especially after experiencing the reactions to the covid-19 phenomenon, have
become particularly relevant and vitally necessary, the topic of our
conference remains Language, Literature, Alternatives.
The aim of the conference Language, Literature, Alternatives is to explore and
discuss the relationship between language, literature and alternatives within
their contexts. This can include the critical examining of various alternative
theoretical and methodological approaches in linguistics, literary theory and
culture studies, the alternatives that literary works offer to the dominant
ideological views of the world, alternatives to literary and language cannons,
analyses of alternative literary forms or language constructions, as well as
other topics dealing with alternatives in the given disciplines. 


Call for Papers: 

The online format of the 2021 conference means that the participants will
record their 15-minute presentations, and all the recordings will be available
at the conference website starting from April 10, 2021. The conference itself
will be held as a video conference, where the participants will give a brief
5-minute summary of their presentation, with the 60-minute discussion per
session. The detailed technical guidelines regarding this aspect of the
conference will be sent by mid-February, to the colleagues whose abstracts get
accepted. 
Conference languages are English and Serbian. 

If you would like to participate, please fill in the registration form
available on the conference website
https://llconference.filfak.ni.ac.rs/registration no later than January 15,
2021.
The participants who already applied for the LLA conference in spring 2020 and
received a confirmation that their abstract had been accepted, if they want to
take part at the 2021 conference, should only confirm it by mail to the
conference address llconference at filfak.ni.ac.rs, by December 1, 2020, subject
‘application confirmation’. 
Notification of acceptance will be sent by mid-February 2021. A selection of
papers will be published after the conference in a peer-reviewed Conference
Proceedings. 

The conference fee is 30 Euros (also payable in dinars), covering
organisational costs and the costs of the conference proceedings publication.
The fee should be paid before sending the recording of the presentation. The
conference fee in dinars is payable to the Faculty of Philosophy Niš bank
account. Please see the conference website for full payment details.
