Full Title: International Interdisciplinary Symposium on Ambiguity Date: 05-Nov-2009 - 07-Nov-2009 Location: University of Tuebingen, Germany Contact Person: Felix Balmer Meeting Email: ambiguity nphil.uni-tuebingen.de Web Site: http://www.ambiguitaet.uni-tuebingen.de Linguistic Field(s): General Linguistics; Psycholinguistics; Semantics; Syntax Call Deadline: 31-May-2009 Meeting Description: International Symposium Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Ambiguity: Linguistics, Literary Studies and Rhetoric Eberhard-Karls University Tübingen Postgraduate Program "Dimensions of Ambiguity" Schloss Hohentübingen November 5-7, 2009 Call for Papers Phenomena of ambiguity provide an interesting and controversial area of research for linguistics and literary studies as well as for rhetoric. A particularly rewarding field of enquiry is the resolution and production of ambiguity in text, speech, gestures and images. The aim of this conference is to bring together the stimuli of these perspectives and focus on the dimensions of ambiguity within an interdisciplinary dialogue. We intend to address the following questions: How is ambiguity processed and resolved? How does ambiguity arise? How can it be generated? What is the communicative value of ambiguity? The following aspects may provide a first approach to the discussion: Ellipsis and ambiguity in public speeches at the interface between syntax, semantics, pragmatics and psycholinguistics; The relationship between linguistic ambiguities and ambiguous subject matter in literary texts (possible examples are the different versions of the last sentence of Dickens's Great Expectations or the letter A becoming an ambiguous sign in Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter); The status of mishearings and mondegreens at the prelexical and lexical level within a model of language processing; Beyond the ambiguity of linguistic signs: the ambiguity of the signified, e.g. conceptual figure-ground-effects and their manifestations in language; Ambiguity in visual sign systems, e.g. in images, films or gesture-based texts. We invite abstracts for 30-minute-talks (plus 30 minutes for discussion). Please send your abstracts (200 - 300 words) to ambiguity nphil.uni-tuebingen.de until May 31, 2009. For further information, go to: http://www.ambiguitaet.uni-tuebingen.de.
