[Corpora-List] IVACS 2008 - Final call for papers

[Stephanie.O'Riordan]

 Final Call for Papers 

 

The Fourth Inter-Varietal Applied Corpus Studies (IVACS) group
International Conference on

Applying Corpus Linguistics


 


University of Limerick, Ireland


13th and 14th June 2008

 

Confirmed Keynote Speakers Include:

Svenja Adolphs

Luke Prodromou

Randi Reppen

Elena Tognini Bonelli

 

The aim of the conference is to continue the success of the previous
three IVACS conferences held at the Universities of Limerick, Belfast
and Nottingham in 2002, 2004 and 2006, by exploring ways in which corpus
linguistics has been applied to other areas of research and pedagogy. We
invite papers that explore how this process has brought new
methodological challenges and benefits, as well as papers that report on
applied corpus research in any of the following areas:

 

*	Corpus Linguistics and Applied Linguistics (data-driven
learning; learner corpora; testing; teacher education; non-native
speakers of English/English as an International Language (EIL)/English
as a Lingua Franca (ELF); 
*	Corpus Linguistics and Analysing Discourse (using CL in
conjunction with other methodologies, e.g. Discourse Analysis,
Conversation Analysis, Critical Discourse Analysis); using CL to look at
language in specific contexts, e.g. Media Discourse, Classroom
Discourse, Workplace Discourse, Academic Discourse)
*	Corpus Linguistics and Literature (including Corpus Stylistics;
CL and Translation Studies)
*	Corpus Linguistics  and Forensic Linguistics
*	Corpus Linguistics and Pragmatics
*	Corpus Linguistics and Speech Technology 
*	Corpus Linguistics and Sociolinguistics

 

Papers focusing on languages other than English, and non-native
varieties of English are particularly welcome.
