Meeting Description:
Second announcement for 1st International Conference on Critical
Discourse Analysis which will be celebrated in Val�ncia, 5-8/05/2004

Critical Discourse Analysis has proved to be one of the most
interesting and fascinating fields of linguistic endeavour in the last
few years as it relates directly to society and history. This field of
study is wide-ranging and impinges on a large number of important
issues in our society. The International Conference on Critical
Discourse Analysis has been divided thematically into four main areas:
1) mass media and the formation of public opinion; 2) the construction
of social and cultural entities through discourse; 3) social change,
institutional discourse and the discourse of education; 4) ideology in
visual and musical discourse.
