the creation of collocations and the linguistic description of its
semantic and pragmatic
aspects, while bringing the metaphorical and metonymical dimension of
collocations
to the foreground and also discussing their possible implications for
applied linguistics.

MetaCol’s plenary speakers will include: professor Zoltán Kövecses
from the Eötvös
Loránd University in Budapest (Hungary), professor Cornelia Müller
from the
European University Viadrina in Frankfurt/Oder (Germany) and professor

Call for Papers:
International Linguistic Conference
MetaCol – Collocations in the Light of Metaphors and Metonymies
3 - 4 October 2024
Inter-University Centre Dubrovnik, Croatia

Dear colleagues,

We would like to invite you to participate in the International
Linguistic Conference
MetaCol – Collocations in the Light of Metaphors and Metonymies, which
will be
held on 3 and 4 October 2024 and will take place at the
Inter-University Center in
Dubrovnik, Croatia.
The aim of the conference is to provide various insights into the
principles underlying
the creation of collocations and the linguistic description of its
semantic and pragmatic
aspects, while bringing the metaphorical and metonymical dimension of
collocations
to the foreground and discussing also their possible implications for
applied linguistics.
Proposals can include, but are not limited to studies dealing with
metaphorical and
metonymical collocations from the perspectives of:

• Semantics (e.g., degree of lexicalization, motivation/transparency
etc.)
• Cognitive Linguistics (e.g., conceptual metaphors and metonymies)
• Construction Grammar (CxG)
• Pragmatics
• Contrastive Linguistics
• (Meta-)Lexicography
• Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing (NLP)
• (Machine) Translation
• Language Learning and Teaching
• Language for Specific Purposes (LSP) etc.

Since the conference is organized within the framework of the
scientific research
project Metaphorical collocations – syntagmatic relations between
semantics and
pragmatics (for more information about the project visit the official
website
https://metakol.uniri.hr/en/), which is financed by the Croatian
Science Foundation, the
project staff will be presenting their research results pertaining to
the project goals.

MetaCol’s plenary speakers will include: professor Zoltán Kövecses
from the Eötvös
Loránd University in Budapest (Hungary), professor Cornelia Müller
from the
European University Viadrina in Frankfurt/Oder (Germany) and professor
Dmitrij
Dobrovol’skij, affiliated professor at Stockholm University (Sweden).

We kindly invite you to participate in the conference by offering your
original
contributions to the topic.

The conference will be held both in English and German. Presentations
should not
exceed 20 minutes and will be followed by a 10-minute slot for
discussion. We invite
you to submit your abstracts by 31 January 2024 via the following
form:
https://forms.gle/xbgdSBKfTDc9FRjr9.
The results of the review process will be announced by 15 April 2024.
The conference will be a face-to-face event and no online
participation will be possible.
Participants are expected to bear the costs of travel and
accommodation themselves.
The conference fee is 70 EUR for PhD students and 100 EUR for all
other participants.
It includes conference materials, the conference book, refreshments
during breaks
and a welcome reception.

organizing committee.
