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, from meaning making
and identity shaping to social life management and national image
construction. 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. Against this background, the First International Conference on
Discourse Pragmatics will take place in 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. We are looking forward to
your participation in this great event.
