Meeting Description:
The members of the CLAVIER Board (Corpus and Language Variation in English
Research), in collaboration with Unimore research groups Lexi-Term and CAP
(Professional and Academic Communication), are pleased to announce the 2021
CLAVIER conference, to be held at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia
from November 18 to November 19. The theme is: Exploring Words in the Digital
Transformation: Tools and Approaches for the study of Lexis and Phraseology in
Evolving Discourse Domains.
The role of the lexicon has been analyzed from the perspective of different
theories of language in the 20th and 21st centuries, ranging from
structuralist and generative approaches to more recent cognitively oriented
studies of word semantics in context. Our objective is to give real evidence
of how we use words, phrases and constructions, both in writing and in speech,
in various discourse domains and as a result of the digital transformation.
The digital transformation has certainly had an impact on methodological and
theoretical approaches to the study of lexis and phraseology. Corpus tools
have greatly contributed to the development of lexicography, lexicology and
lexico-semantics in particular, with attention to extended units of meaning,
lexico-grammatical approaches and focus on patterns and constructions, to name
just a few.
The impact of the digital transformation has also been profound on
communication itself. The study of digital discourse has often highlighted
elements of innovation and creativity in language use, as well as in the
language repertoires of participants (often crossing the borders of
languages), thus adding new perspectives to studies on diversity in discourse
and variation in language. The extended participation framework of web
discourse has opened the way for new communicative situations and wider impact
of the ideological dimension of words, for example in the social media.
Digital discourse studies have also most clearly highlighted the need to look
at the multimodal and multimedia nature of communication on the Web and at the
new developments of AI in online interaction.
The Conference aims to gather research experiences and findings on these
topics from scholars working on different natural languages and addressing
different fields of general language and specialized discourse. The talks will
address the intense change taking place in the evolving digital media, with
new forms of participation and contribution, or will pay attention to the
tools offered by the digital transformation for the study of lexis and
phraseology both past and present.
The Conference will take place online, given the current uncertainty about
travelling restrictions in the near future.
This is one of a series of events sponsored by the departmental “Project of
Excellence” on Digital Communication, funded by the Italian Ministry of
University and Research.
