Call for Papers
Deadline for proposals: 1 June 2010
"Enough, one must go on, these are things that one thinks but does not say."
Primo Levi, Survival in Auschwitz
Levi's quotation naturally reminds us that the unsaid engages the area of
thinking, of silence, whereas the said that of utterance and language.
Interpreted in these terms, the said and the unsaid occupy a presence - absence
position, which proposes, to use a structuralist term, a binary opposition
between thought and language. Generally speaking, although language is conceived
as materialization of thought, they are not necessarily the same. It happens
that other barriers (mental, psychological, social, ethical etc) interfere and
do not allow our mouth to give shape to what our mind thinks. The unsaid becomes
in this way a kind of subtext, an unconscious that exerts great power for
interpretation.
The conference welcomes papers which involve issues exploring the relationship
between silence and speech, language and thought and their representation in
areas of linguistics, literature, cultural studies etc.
Papers are welcomed from but are not limited to:
- Discourse analysis
- Pragmatics
- Linguistics
- Semiotics
- British and commonwealth literature
- American literature
- Literary theory

publication in the conference proceedings. Further information is available on
