Dear Colleagues,

**Apologies for cross-posting; please distribute widely.***

We are delighted to announce *the LANSI advanced studies virtual 
workshop series!* This academic year we will be offering a series of 
/limited-space, hands-on/ virtual workshops designed for participants 
with an existing background in conversation analysis or language and 
social interaction more broadly.

Ourinaugural workshop, scheduled on Friday, Nov 12, will explore 
discourse particles and will be led by Galina Bolden from Rutgers 
University. See below for an abstract for the workshop and Professor 
Bolden's bio. We look forward to seeing you at the workshop!

*Abstract *

This advanced-level workshop explores issues involved in conducting 
conversation analytic research on discourse particles (or “discourses 
markers”) - a class of linguistic devices that includes words and 
phrases such as /anyway/, /well/, /you know/, /oh/, /so/, /like/, etc. 
While particles are easily identifiable and collectable, a systematic 
analysis of their use in interactional data is notoriously challenging. 
What constitutes a workable collection of cases for conducting 
conversation analytic research into particles? What kinds of evidence 
can be mounted for a defensible analysis? To address these questions, 
workshop participants will work on a collection of cases of an English 
particle, start to develop a grounded analysis of its interactional 
functions, and explore challenges involved in such research. There will 
also be an opportunity to discuss unique issues in analyzing particles 
in other languages.


*Speaker's Bio*

Galina Bolden is a Professor of Communication at Rutgers University. She 
conducts conversation analytic research in Russian and English 
languages, both in ordinary conversation and in healthcare settings. 
Broadly, her research examines how participants enact and negotiate 
their cultural identities and personal relationships in and through 
talk-in-interaction. She is a co-author (with Alexa Hepburn) of 
/Transcribing for Social Research/ (2017) and co-editor (with John 
Heritage and Marja-Leena Sorjonen) of /Responding to Polar Questions 
Across Languages and Contexts/ (2022).


Best,
Carol
