Meeting Description: 

Across cultures, discourse reporting is a central feature of narrative
practices. Across languages, it constitutes a special domain in which a number
of characteristic grammatical phenomena can be observed, such as logophoricity
and other special uses of pronouns (Hagège 1974, Nikitina 2012a,b), different
types of deictic shift (Aikhenvald 2008, Evans 2013), quotative markers
(Güldemann 2008), self-quotation markers (Michael 2014), reported subject
markers, unusual patterns of code-switching, and many others (see Spronck and
Nikitina forthc. for a recent overview).

Building on this insight, the ERC-funded project ''Discourse reporting in
African storytelling'' is hosting a workshop to explore discourse reporting
across languages and cultures from various theoretical and methodological
perspectives. The aim of the workshop is to bring together scholars who work
on languages of diverse geographical and typological affiliations in order to
exchange new ideas on different aspects of reported discourse.

Speakers include:

Gian Claudio Batic (University of Naples)
Dmitry Bondarev (University of Hamburg / SOAS)
Anna Bugaeva (Tokyo University of Science / NINJAL)
Diana Forker (University of Bamberg)
Abbie Hantgan (LLACAN, CNRS)
Tatiana Nikitina (LLACAN, CNRS)
Elena Perekhvalskaya (LLACAN, CNRS / Russian Academy of Sciences)
Stef Spronck (University of Helsinki)
Rebecca Voll (LLACAN, CNRS)
