PSJ 13 brings together all the researchers focussed on pragmatics working 
in a wide range of areas of language research and provides a forum for 
interdisciplinary discussion where participants can discuss their work with 
other people from both theoretical and applied backgrounds. Continuing an 
established tradition, this year's meeting has attracted the submission of a 
number of outstanding papers from leading universities in Japan and 
abroad (US, UK, France, China, Chinene Taipei and other Asian countries). 
Please, visit http://wwwsoc.nii.ac.jp/psj4 for details on the meeting program. 
We will have 28 oral presentations(8 spoken in English and 20 in 
Japanese), 9 poster presentations, 2 workshops(one is on Humors in 
Western culture and the other is on Grammar in Social Interaction: Exploring 
Possibilities of Conversation Analysis), one symposium(Exploring 
Pragmatics from Functional Perspectives), and one prenary lecture.

We are particularly delighted to welcome Dr Malcom Coulthard of Aston 
University as this year's plenary speaker. For more information on his 
plenary talk, please see the following title and our website: The Official 
Version: on the relation between what was said to the police and what was 
officially recorded

We will also have a symposium done by one outstanding Japanese 
functional linguist, and two conversational analysts, titled Exploring 
Pragmatics from Functional Perspectives.
