    The 31st International Systemic Functional Congress - ISFC2004 Doshisha University, Kyoto, Japan Congress Dates: August 30th - September 4th 2004 Congress Theme: Aiming at Globalization: SF Theory and Linguistic Description

    *Please Note that ''Call for Papers'' is Closed* We welcome papers that take a systemic functional perspective on any aspect of language and related semiotic systems, including computational, descriptive, developmental, (critical) discourse, educational, forensic, historical, literary, psychiatric, psychological, social, therapeutic, theoretical and typological linguistics and semiotics. In 2004, we particularly invite contributors to consider approaching their topic from the point of view of using SFL theory to analyze other languages from different perspectives. Of course, papers will be welcome that develop original analyses of natural language in the well-established English-oriented framework of study, but we wish to especially encourage papers that make use of SFL theory outside the English-oriented realm.

    Convenors: Masa-aki Tatsuki, Hisao Kakehi, and Wendy Bowcher
