Meeting Description:

Powerless in front of the circumstances in times of the Covid-19 pandemics and
an uncertain future, after 13 years of our regular spring meetings
(2007–2019), we have to organize this conference in the same online video
conference format as the one in 2021.

The conference languages are English and Serbian, for 15-minute presentations
followed by 5 minutes of discussion time. Detailed technical guidelines
regarding this aspect of the conference will be sent in April 2022.

If you would like to participate, please follow the instructions on the
Registration page (https://llconference.filfak.ni.ac.rs/registration).

More information will be available here on the LLP/JKM 2022 page
(https://llconference.filfak.ni.ac.rs/llpjkm-2022).


Call for Papers:

On behalf of the LLP Organising Committee, it is our pleasure to send you the
first Call for Papers containing information on the forthcoming conference
Language, Literature, Power, organized by the Faculty of Philosophy in Niš,
which will be held on 6th and 7th May 2022.

The renowned Serbian poet Branislav Brana Petrović in his poem ‘The power of
speech’ claims: ’’The power of speech is both a special and the greatest
power.’’ Less poetically, the British writer Angela Carter in her essay ‘Notes
from the Front Line’ says: ’’Language is power, life and the instrument of
culture, the instrument of domination and liberation.’’ Even if we cannot
identify with the poetic cry of the great Serbian poet Branko Miljković ’’Too
strong a word killed me’’, we can agree that the power of words is undeniable.

Power as a concept can be viewed in all spheres of life and many research
disciplines, but that would open up too wide a field of study. Therefore, as
researchers in the fields of humanities and social studies, at our traditional
international conference, this year entitled Language, Literature, Power, we
choose to focus on the power of words, as well as on the relationship between
words and power manifested in various spheres of society and in literature.
Thus we remain in the domain widely encompassing linguistic and literary
studies as well as the neighbouring interdisciplinary studies, but
nevertheless enable the participants to approach this general phenomenon in
specific contexts and from their individual and original perspectives.

We are looking forward to welcoming you in Niš, virtually!

With best regards,

Language, Literature, Power Conference Organising Committee
