Estimats collegues,
Tenim el plaer d'anunciar-vos que la 7a edició del Congrés de Lingüística

donar a conèixer les investigacions en lingüística que es realitzen a les
diverses universitats del país i de l'estranger. A més dels formats de
presentació tradicionals, el congrés incorpora novetats interessants, com
l'organització de simposis i taules rodones de temàtiques diverses. Tot plegat
en una universitat que convida a la reflexió i a l'intercanvi de coneixements i
en una ciutat que ofereix als visitants tot el seu atractiu cultural, turístic i
lúdic.

Meeting Description:
Intercultural communication and multilingual discourse
Section 9: Intercultural Communication and Multilingual Discourse Advertising:
intercultural and multilingual
Advertising: intercultural and multilingual
(Organizers: Jan ten Thije & Kristin Bührig)
In advertisements, magazines and newspapers, on billboards, in television and
cinema commercials, in business reports and bulk mailings singular text
components are often not kept in the respective national language. As a result,
multilingual texts and other multilingual media products arise, which further
serve the purpose of the advertisement. This not only applies to slogans, but
also to product and company names, and the central ideas, in the form of
linguistic actions, with which one advertises. International markets and
globalisation have, furthermore, led to individual campaigns that are planned
and implemented to suit differing linguistic and cultural groups. Using a broad
definition of advertising, this section shall deal with the forms of image
building and self-presentation of products, companies, and ideas found within
different international media products. The following questions exemplify what
is to be discussed within the section:
- How are normative concepts of identity (corporate identity) of a company and
their customers transformed within advertisements in different languages/ cultures?
- Conversely, to what extent is culturally specific information ''reflected''
in the advertising texts in different languages?
- What (national language) specific information distinguishes differing text/
discourse forms within advertisements?
- Which linguistic particularities does the media communication form being
used display, and how are these particularities used for the purpose of the
advertisement?
Welcome are contributions that examine multilingualism in advertising in respect
to form and function through use of empirical evidence, through methods of
linguistic and cultural comparison, and/or those that examine examples of the
internationalisation of advertisements within a historical perspective through
use of specific examples.
