Meeting Description:

Congress Theme:  

Broadening the Path: Complementarities in Language and Linguistics

The congress theme, Broadening the Path: Complementarities in Language and
Linguistics is intended to suggest that research within the general
framework of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) should give greater
emphasis to the value of the complementarities in current work within SFL.
This implies that while continuing to focus on our specialized areas of
interest, we should also take an active interest in the full range of
current research within SFL, and work towards integrating developments in
these diversified fields in a more unified model of language. Let us
recognize the evolutionary nature of SFL on the one hand, while fostering
its applicability on the other. The theme of ISFC40 therefore aims to
encourage the development of “link paths” that will connect various paths
within the broad, open pathway of SFL, and in this way help promote
creative dialogues and interactions between scholars working in different
regional and academically diverse communities.
