Meeting Description:
The research group “Intercultural Pragmatic Studies (English-Spanish):
Pragmatic and Discourse Issues” is pleased to announce the upcoming Tenth
International Symposium on Intercultural, Cognitive and Social Pragmatics
(EPICS X, after the Spanish acronym for “Encuentros de Pragmática
Intercultural, Cognitiva y Social”). EPICS X will be held on May 23 - 25 2022,
at the Faculty of Humanities of Pablo de Olavide University, Seville (Spain).
Conference theme: “Pragmatics in times of global crisis: exploring
communication online and offline”.
Keynote speakers:
- Anne Barron, Leuphana Universität Lüneburg.
- Nuria Lorenzo-Dus, Swansea University.

EPICS X is intended to be held on campus, as a face-to-face academic event.
Yet, facilities for remote presentation and participation would be offered for
those participants from countries with travel restrictions. If the sanitary
situation unfortunately worsened, EPICS X will be held fully online.
