Meeting Description:

LLS2017, like years past, promises to draw scholars from around the globe to
discuss research that meets at the intersection of language, literature and
society. Drawn largely from an interdisciplinary standpoint, our conference
theme understands that words and language represent not only our thoughts, but
our identities, our social and political relationships with others, how
communities are forged, how power between individuals or groups are
negotiated, amongst other variables. We understand that language connects
cultures, traditions, and practices, that literature introduces us to new
worlds of experience and that the formation of community is often times the
theme.

faculty, policy makers and post-graduate students to share knowledge, exchange
