Second International Workshop on Discourse Analysis
Santiago de Compostela, June 19th-21st, 2013

Call for papers
Sharing ideas, insights, case studies, tools, and methodologies in the
area of Discourse Analysis

Jointly organized by the research groups SCIMITAR and Discourse &
Identity, IWoDA?13, the Second Santiago de Compostela International
Workshop on Discourse Analysis is an international forum for sharing
ideas, insights, case studies, tools, and methodologies in the area of
Discourse Analysis.Our aim is to promote multi- and interdisciplinary
research by bringing together researchers that analyse discourse from
different perspectives: theoretical and applied, quantitative and
qualitative, linguistic, literary, historical and cultural. Guest
speakers will provide case studies, tools and methodologies in plenary
lectures and specialised workshops, which will upgrade the skills
necessary for discourse analysis in different settings and for
different purposes, thereby promoting lifelong learning and
encouraging synergies between academics.
