Meeting Description:

The conference will be organised around two large thematic areas of
linguistics and literature, pivoting around the concept of intersection.

On  the  one  hand,  this notion will  be  widely  applied  to  linguistic 
studies,  covering  the  following  thematic lines:

- Diachronic and synchronic linguistic studies (phonetics, phonology;
morphosyntax; semantics; lexis; discourse)
- Linguistic variation and change
- Sociolinguistics
- Dialectology
- Pragmatics and discourse
- Corpus linguistics
- Contrastive and translation studies
- Applied linguistics
- Acquisition and teaching of first, second and foreign languages
- Bilingualism and multilingualism
- Language Teaching 

On  the other  hand, this  idea of  intersection  will  be  approached  in 
relation  to the following thematic lines within literary studies:

- Literary studies  covering all  periods (from the Middle Ages to
contemporary times)
- Reception studies
- Comparative literature
- Teaching of literature
- Children’s literature and literature for young adults
- Transnational literature
- Cultural and gender studies

In  addition,  the  Conference  will  be  honoured with three plenary 
presentations  by renowned  experts  such  as Barbara  De  Cock  (Université 
Catholique  de  Louvain), Lucía  Loureiro   Porto  (Universitat  de   les  
Illes   Balears) and Hernán  Sánchez Martínez de Pinillos (University of
Maryland).
