Subject: Deadline Extended: Linguistic Forum 2022

 
The international conference ''Linguistic Forum 2022: Traditional speech forms
and practices '' will be held at the Institute of Linguistics, RAS, on
November 17-19, 2022. The conference is part of a series of annual linguistic
forums initiated by the Institute of Linguistics RAS in 2019, each dedicated
to a socially important aspect of the scientific study of language; see
https://iling-ran.ru/web/en/conferences/lingforums. The topic of the 2019
Forum was the UN Year of Indigenous Languages. The 2020 Forum ''Language and
Artificial Intelligence'' was devoted to interdisciplinary dialogue among
researchers working at the interface of linguistics and computer science. The
starting point of the 2021 Forum “Language policy and language preservation”
was the UN International Decade of Indigenous languages. The choice of this
year is suggested by the fact that 2022 was announced as the Year of the
Cultural Heritage of the peoples of Russia.

The Forum program will include papers aimed at the linguistic analysis of
traditional speech forms and practices in various linguistic and cultural
communities. Speech forms include types of texts based on standard schemas:
folklore and other traditional forms, such as personal stories, rites,
incantations, as well as conventionalized genres in ancient written or
Medieval traditions. Speech practices mean the particulars of communication in
traditional contexts, including pragmatic strategies and ways of conveying
meaning to an addressee. The focus of the Forum encompasses the modern
languages of Russia, as well as other languages, including extinct (or
sleeping) languages.

The range of research questions that are expected to be addressed at the Forum
includes:
- genre schemas in folklore discourse and other kinds of traditional texts;
- lexical, grammatical, and phonetic features of traditional speech forms;
- traditional speech practices, their structure and functions;
- formulas of speech etiquette, their age- and gender-related peculiarities;
- audiovisual space of traditional speech forms and practices;
- influence of language contact on the development and functioning of
traditional speech forms and practices;
- modification of traditional speech forms and practices in modern languages,
including newly written ones;
- vitality of traditional speech forms and practices and the perspectives of
their development in the digital age;
- the role of traditional speech forms and practices in the development of
linguistic identities;
- documentation and archiving of traditional speech forms and practices;
- the use of traditional speech forms and practices in language teaching.

The format of the Forum (online or in-person) will be determined later. A
participation fee will be charged if the Forum is held in person.

Key dates:
August 25, 2022 – deadline (extended) for the submission of abstracts;
September 15, 2022 – decisions on paper acceptance are sent out;
October 15, 2022 – publication of the preliminary program;
November 17-19, 2022 – the Forum.

Please submit anonymous abstracts at lingforum at iling-ran.ru by August 25,
2022, simultaneously in both .doc and .pdf formats. The abstract should not
exceed one page of text; the second page may be used for illustrative material
and a list of references. Abstracts should not include the authors’ names,
their affiliations, e-mails and phone numbers; all this information must be
included in the body of the message. The Forum’s Program Committee will review
the abstracts and select the most substantial and relevant papers.
