Meeting Description:

The UVigo research group Language Variation and Textual Categorisation
(LVTC) and the UIB research project Variation in English Worldwide
(ViEW) are pleased to announce the international conference “Gibraltar
English: Linguistic, Literary and Cultural Perspectives”, which will
take place on 8-9 July 2024 at the MARCO Museum lecture theatre in
Vigo.

In its first edition, at the University of Cambridge (UK) in 2023,
this conference was designed to bring together Gibraltarian writers
and European academics working on Gibraltarian literary production.
The conference papers and discussions brought to light the complex
linguistic and cultural aspects of Gibraltar, which are, to this day,
underresearched. This sparked the launch of two more editions of the
Gibraltar International Conference, to be held at the University of
Vigo (2024) and the University of Basel (2025), and to formalise and
expand the original focus of the conference.

Thus, the 2nd Gibraltar International Conference will explore the
linguistic, literary and cultural diversity of Gibraltar, a British
Overseas Territory located at the southern tip of the Iberian
Peninsula, i.e., at the crossroads between Europe and Africa.
