Linguistic Field(s): Discourse Analysis

Meeting Description:

The Centre d’Études Linguistiques – Corpus, Discours et Sociétés
(University of Lyon – Jean Moulin Lyon 3) will organize a symposium on
May 16, 2025. The theme is political narratives and their use in
political discourse. Our keynote speaker will be Philip Seargeant
(Open University).

Operating within the prolific fields of narrative studies and
discourse analysis, this one-day conference aims to contribute to our
understanding of how narratives frame the political debate in today’s
democracies. As “one verbal technique for recapitulating past
experience” (Labov & Waletzky 1967: 13) narratives constitute a
cognitive activity (De Fina & Georgakopoulou, 2012: 5) that is partly
subjective and may have an emotional (Reisigl 2021) and persuasive
(Polletta 2006) effect on the story recipient. This perlocutionary
effect of the narrative format makes it highly relevant to the study
of political discourse.

Submissions should include an abstract (up to 500 words, excluding
references) as well as a short biography and should be sent to:
• Melissa Martin-Kemel <melissa.martin-kemel at univ-lyon3.fr>,
• Bérengère Lafiandra <berengere.lafiandra1 at univ-lyon3.fr>,
• Jon Delogu <christopher-jon.delogu at univ-lyon3.fr>,
• Alma-Pierre Bonnet <alma-pierre.bonnet at univ-lyon3.fr>

Please don’t hesitate to submit an abstract if you’re interested.
