Dear I-Land members,


I am writing to share information regarding a great opportunity for your students. Together with colleagues from Ku Leuven (Belgium) and IUAV University of Venice, Exeter (UK) has organised a very exciting summer school in Venice, Italy, on 'Linguistic Landscapes: Using Signs and Symbols to Translate Cities'. The summer school will take place in June 26-30, 2023.

What is the aim of the school?

The aim of the school is to study the multimodal domain of images, sounds, drawings, movements, visuals, graffiti, tattoos, colours, smells as well as people. It will also give you the opportunity to carry out research in Venice and explore the cultural profile of our cities.
