Meeting Description:

The University of Wuppertal will be organizing the second
international workshop “Language in Social Interaction” (LISI 2) on 17
July 2025.

The aim of this bi-annual event is to bring together researchers who
study language as a social phenomenon (rather than from the
perspective of a single speaker) and to discuss how an interactional
perspective may enrich existing theories of language and language
change as well as research approaches, models and frameworks.

This time we will organize two consecutive topical sections, one for
the study of language in social interaction from a historical
perspective and another one studying social interaction from a modern,
present-day perspective. We invite papers from both historical
linguists dealing with social and socio-pragmatic aspects of language
development (e.g. historical pragmatics, historical sociolinguistics)
and from linguists or sociologists dealing with language in social
interaction from a modern perspective, e.g. based on pragmatic,
(neuro-)cognitive, discourse analytic, conversation analytic,
linguistic-ethnographic or sociolinguistic approaches.

Plenary speakers:
Prof. Simona Pekarek Doehler, University of Neuchâtel
Prof. Olga Timofeeva, University of Zurich

Organization:
Alexander Haselow, Elzbieta Adamczyk

Call for Papers:

By focusing on recent research in interaction-oriented linguistics and
related areas, this workshop seeks to bring together contributions to
gain new insights into language-related aspects of social interaction,
moving away from an individual-based perspective toward an
interaction-based perspective. We invite papers that contribute to one
of the following aspects:

1. understanding to which extent particular linguistic resources (e.g.
address terms, discourse markers, backchannels, interjections,
attention getters, response elicitors, prosody) and practices (e.g.
turn co-constructions, collaborative actions) contribute to the
interaction dynamics between agents,
2. understanding the cognitive mechanisms and processes involved in
the temporary coupling of two minds engaged in conversational
interaction (e.g. interactive alignment/synchronization; establishing
common ground; conversational coordination, discourse processing,
Theory of Mind),
3. understanding the role of dialogicity and interaction in foreign
language learning (e.g. acquisition of pragmatic competence or
non-standard features of language),
4. understanding the role of interaction in specific forms of language
change (e.g. pragmatic changes, pragmaticalization or discoursization,
socio-historical variation, changes in patterns of interaction leading
to such effects as subjectification or conventionalization of
language).

Format:
20 minutes talk + 15 minutes for discussion;
language used for presentations and in the discussions: English

Abstracts should be anonymous and no more than one side of A4,
including references.
