First Call for Papers
We are pleased to announce the second IVACS (Inter-Varietal Applied
Corpus Studies) conference, following the successful first conference
held at the University of Limerick in June 2002.

The theme of the conference is 'discourse in context' and related
themes include talk-in-interaction, variations in context, communities
of practice, the implications of context for language learning,
research methods for analyzing context.

Abstracts, totalling no more than 200 words and including title, name
of presenter, contact details and brief outline of the talk should be
sent to the conference organiser, Steve Walsh, from whom further
details are available. Given the scope of the IVACS research group,
corpus-based approaches to analyzing context are particularly
welcome. The deadline for receipt of abstracts is October 31, 2003.
