Call for Papers:
We are pleased to announce the upcoming 14th edition of our conference
Language of the Third Millennium, to be held on 18-20 March 2026.The
conference aims to create a forum dedicated to the exploration of the
interplay of modes—linguistic, visual, gestural, spatial, aural, and
beyond—in meaning-making processes across a wide range of
communicative contexts
The importance of multimodality becomes evident in everyday life,
strongly tied to dynamic media contexts and influenced by the online
environment, highlighting the complexities of contemporary language
use. In the digital age, multimodality has gained particular relevance
across manifold fields of study, such as pragmatics, semiotics,
communication studies, media studies, education, and translation
studies, to name but a few. Therefore, the conference aims to bring
together scholars from diverse theoretical and methodological
backgrounds to encourage debate on how multiple semiotic resources are
orchestrated in broadly conceived human interaction, media, and
digital communication. The event is directed primarily at linguists,
translators, modern philologists, and other researchers in related
fields, including PhD students. The conference is also open to
practitioners who wish to join in discussions on multimodality, such
as language teachers.
We are pleased to announce that the following speakers have expressed
their agreement to present plenary lectures during the conference:
 - Charles Forceville, University of Amsterdam, Netherlands (to be
confirmed)
 - Janina Wildfeuer, University of Groningen, Netherlands
 - Michał Szawerna, prof. UWr, University of Wrocław, Poland
 - Iwona Loewe, University of Silesia in Katowice, Poland
We would like to welcome contributions on (but not limited to) the
following themes:
 - multimodal discourse analysis and digital discourse analysis
 - multimodality in face-to-face and mediated interaction
 - media studies, social media, instant messaging, and language
dynamics
