Meeting Description:
Like previous ESTIDIA conferences, the forthcoming 2024 ESTIDIA
conference puts dialogue and dialogic forms of communication in the
spotlight, as front and centre of all forms of human communication.
This time the focus is on exploring real-life, fictional and virtual
dialogues in terms of similarities and differences, overlaps and
complementarities, constancy and change. To understand the
context-driven, situation-based and culture-specific impact of
dialogic communication patterns, it is essential to examine in situ
instantiations of dialogue as social interaction practice, as jointly
steered activity, as philosophical or scientific method of inquiry, as
rhetorical process of co-reflection, as pedagogical approach, as
problem-solving tool, as mechanism of ethical and political scrutiny
(Ilie 2022).
Within the broad theme of the conference, participants are invited to
explore a range of questions concerning dialogue genres, dialogue
practices and/or dialogue strategies, in relation to roles and goals
of dialogue participants, to convergent or divergent speech acts, to
common ground and shared knowledge.
The questions participants are called upon to consider, analyse and
debate include, but are not limited to, the following:
• In what ways and according to which discursive and/or
rhetorical dimensions do various types of dialogue vary across
languages and cultures?
• To what extent are the structural and functional patterns of
various types of dialogues intertwined in specific dialogic genres
(e.g., media dialogue, drama dialogue, educational dialogue)?
• How can real-life, fictional and virtual dialogues be
distinguished from each other in terms of linguistic design, dialogic
cues, key words and/or discourse markers?
• Is television dialogue expected to sound like naturally
occurring conversation, or to purposefully diverge from spontaneous
talk, or both?
• What theoretical and methodological approaches are best suited
for researching the interfaces of real-life, fictional, and/or virtual
dialogue?
• In what ways are particular keywords and speech acts used in
particular dialogic interactions to manipulate and/or reproduce
otherness?
• What is the role of (social) media, films, literature, and
popular culture in shaping both concepts (imaginaries) and experiences
of dialogue?
• In what ways is mutual trust perceived in face-to-face
interaction? How is mutual trust affected by the conditions of virtual
interaction?
• How much do cross-European dialogues reveal about interaction
paradigms in individual European cultures?
• How is ChatGPT going to change the way we think, communicate
and interact with each other?
• To what extent have the dialogic patterns between humans and
machines been foreshadowed in fictional and/or film dialogue? How do
they confirm or disconfirm the predictions?
• How does knowledge (a)symmetry influence terminology
preferences of different user groups in specialised communication and
specialised discourse?
• What challenges does translation (as a cultural phenomenon,
industry, profession) face in cross-cultural dialogue under the
conditions of globalisation? How do technological developments affect
translation industry and translator education? What is the future of
translation as a field of practice conditioned by the rapid
advancement of AI?
