LANGUAGE, LITERATURE, AND INDUSTRY

Linking language and literature – or any other branch of arts and humanities –
with industry is certainly not as incongruous as it may at first glance
appear. It was, after all, due to both industrious work and industrial
endeavours of people such as Johannes Gutenberg and William Caxton that books
were given a printed form and found a wider readership. It was also the
Industrial Revolution that made languages lexically richer, introducing new
words to represent the new industrial reality. While the meaning of the term
‘industry’ has somewhat changed over time and expanded to encompass not only
diligence or manufacture but also different branches of business and economy,
its connection with languages and literatures remains firm, if not even more
fully developed. Today we speak of language industry, which among other fields
of study includes translation and communication, or entertainment industry,
which is, like all good literature, based on good stories. Machine
participation in the provision of language services is a reality of the modern
world, and the globalisation process has created the need for the
standardisation and certification of these services. With all this in mind,
our aim for this conference is to gather researchers who will examine various
aspects of the relationship between language, literature, and industry as
fields of human effort and achievement. We invite contributions inspired by
the following topics and areas of research:

- Industrial revolutions and language
- Industrial revolutions and literature
- Cultural and creative industries
- Literature and the poetics of work 
- Translation, literacy, and book industry
- Automation in language services
- Industry-specific languages 
- Knowledge production and management
- Standardisation and certification of language services
- Contemporary sociology and labour market
- Aspects of media and entertainment industries
- Other

Conference sessions will be held in both live and online format, at Alfa BK
University, Belgrade, and via Google Meet. Conference fee is 50 euros.
Presentation abstracts can be submitted via the following link: Language,
Literature, and Industries / Jezik, književnost i industrije - Google Forms
and will be accepted until 15th July 2022. You will receive notification of
acceptance within two weeks of your submission. For any enquiries, please
