The course, which will be given in English, aims to introduce participants to pragmatics in the Anglophone tradition (Austin, Grice, Searle, Leech, Levinson, Sperber & Wilson, etc.) and also to Functional Discourse Grammar (FDG) by approaching pragmatics through the prism of the Interpersonal Level of FDG.

The course will take the form of synchronous online lectures, with ample opportunity for questions and discussion. Students are encouraged to participate actively and critically and to offer cross-cultural observations.
