Meeting Description:

The Tenth Brno Conference will focus on studies of the English language as a
multifaceted, multidimensional and variable phenomenon. Aspects of the
language, such as the form, structure, meaning, function and context work
together to meet peopleʼs communicative needs, and the message, medium
employed, audience and culture complete the parameters of a communicative
situation. We understand the combining of various perspectives and drawing on
the tools characteristic of various linguistic disciplines as a necessary
condition of contemporary linguistic research.


Call for Papers:

The Department of English Language and Literature, Faculty of Education,

Brno Conference on Linguistics Studies in English, which will be held in Brno

The Tenth Brno Conference will focus on studies of the English language as a
multifaceted, multidimensional and variable phenomenon. Aspects of the
language, such as the form, structure, meaning, function and context work
together to meet peopleʼs communicative needs, and the message, medium
employed, audience and culture complete the parameters of 
a communicative situation. We understand the combining of various perspectives
and drawing on the tools characteristic of various linguistic disciplines as a
necessary condition of contemporary linguistic research. 

We believe that the contributions will reflect this variety of language
dimensions, as well as plenitude of research approaches which manifest current
developments in the study of language.

We particularly welcome papers and posters with the following foci:

- corpus-based analysis of English language discourse
- cross-cultural and cross-linguistic research
- study of multimedia genres and new trends in communication
- pragmatics of English language discourse 
- specialised discourses 
- English as a global/international language
- mind, cognition and language
 
We are happy to inform you that the following keynote speakers have been
invited to participate in the conference:

Jan Chovanec, Masaryk University in Brno, Czech Republic

seminar and we wish to encourage all PhD students dealing with theoretical as
well as applied linguistics (e.g. language teaching and language acquisition)

Each presentation will be allocated 20 minutes plus 10 minutes for discussion.
Posters will be displayed in a special poster session and presenters will be
