Meeting Description:

14th International Conference on Language and Literary Studies

Faculty of Foreign Languages is pleased to announce that its 14th
International Conference on Language and Literary Studies will be held
on 30 and 31 May 2025. The topic for this edition of our annual
conference is

LANGUAGE, LITERATURE, AND EMPATHY

Empathy, as the ability to understand and share the feelings,
emotions, or perspectives of another person, plays a crucial role in
human relationships, communication, and fostering understanding
between individuals and cultures. An empathetic understanding of an
audience or reader improves how language and stories are crafted,
making them more impactful and relatable, while literature driven by
empathy often challenges norms and inspires readers to act
compassionately in their own lives. Within this context, the aim of
our conference is to explore the profound connections between
linguistic expression, literary creativity, and the human capacity for
empathy. To this effect, we invite contributions inspired by but not
limited to the following topics and areas of research:
*       Language as a medium of empathy
*       Empathy in literary narratives across genres and cultures
*       Empathy in communication and media studies
*       Empathy in education, teaching, and learning
*       Empathy in social life and social studies
*       Interdisciplinary and intersectional approaches to research on
empathy
*       Other (you can specify a topic for a panel session with at
least three presenters)

Conference sessions will be held both onsite, at Alfa BK University
(Bulevar Maršala Tolbuhina 8, Belgrade), and online, via Google Meet.
Conference fee is 50 euros. Payment instructions will be forwarded
following the acceptance of your presentation proposal.
Proposals for presentation (up to 15 minutes) can be submitted via the
following link: Language, Literature, and Empathy / Jezik, književnost
