Meeting Description:
Discourse as social practice plays a vital role in interpersonal, intergroup
and even international communication and interaction. In fact, the existence
and progress of human society cannot go without discourse, which can be
evidenced in meaning making or identity construction on the part of social
members, or in the development of social life and foreign-oriented
communication on the part of a nation.
Recent years have witnessed a growing awareness of the necessity and
feasibility of a ‘marriage’between discourse studies and pragmatics, resulting
in a lot of research devoted to exploring, from various perspectives, the
theoretical significance and practical value of discourse pragmatics as a
discipline. Although discourse pragmatics has been developing rapidly, there
are still various fundamental questions that remain to be answered. In view of
this, the First International Conference on Discourse Pragmatics is scheduled
to be held from 21 to 23 October 2022.
This conference will be hosted by Zhejiang International Studies University
located in Hangzhou, China, organized by the School of English Studies and the
Institute of Discourse Pragmatics, and co-organized by Journal of Zhejiang
International Studies University, Springer and John Benjamins. Given various
uncertainties due to the pandemic, this will be mainly an online conference.
We are looking forward to your participation in this great event.
