Date: 11-May-2020 - 12-May-2020
Location: Lodz, Poland
Contact Person: Piotr Cap
Meeting Email: strus_pl at yahoo.com

Call Deadline: 01-Dec-2019
Meeting Description:
The conference is organized by the Department of Pragmatics of the University
of Łódź, Poland (http://anglistyka.uni.lodz.pl/ZPJ?department)
Conference Chair: Piotr Cap
Description:
Marking the 15th anniversary of the establishment of Department of Pragmatics
at the University of Łódź, this 9th edition of the NDLP conference series will
respond to a surge of new research in pragmatics, with a view to bringing
together the novel, empirically, experimentally and clinically based models,
and classical topics and frameworks such as Gricean pragmatics, Speech Act
Theory and presupposition. We encourage papers (re-)examining the
semantics-pragmatics boundary, which has been sometimes blurred by the
confrontation of the new and the traditional frameworks. Proposals are welcome
at the intersection of the philosophy of language and pragmatics dealing with
theoretical, methodological and definitional issues, as well as issues of
interdisciplinarity in pragmatic investigation.
Keynote Speakers:
The following distinguished scholars have accepted to address the conference
as keynote speakers:
Chris Cummins (University of Edinburgh, UK)
Marta Dynel (University of Łódź, Poland)
Anita Fetzer (University of Augsburg, Germany)
Maj-Britt Mosegaard Hansen (University of Manchester, UK)
Call for Papers:
While we specially encourage presentations of theoretical approaches which
have a basis in empirical studies, or allow for experimentally testable
predictions, the conference continues to be open to all kinds of pragmatics
oriented research recognizing pragmatics as a functional (i.e. cognitive,
social and cultural) perspective on language and communication. This applies
to functional studies involving multiple and heterogeneous territories:
everyday discourse, (online) media, education, political and professional
settings, problems of linguistic construction and maintenance of identity,
communicative genres, issues of multilingualism and linguistic pluralism,
pragmatic aspects of translation, pragmatic awareness in foreign language
teaching, and more.
We invite submissions for paper presentations. All submissions should be made
in English. Papers will be allocated 20 minutes plus 10 minutes for questions.
Anonymized abstracts of max. 350 words should be sent by email as a Word
attachment to piotr.cap at uni.lodz.pl (Piotr Cap, Conference Chair) by 1
December 2019. Please include name, affiliation, email address and paper title
in the body of the email. Abstracts will be accepted subject to review by an
international scientific committee. Acceptance decisions will be communicated
via email by 15 December 2019.
