Meeting Description:
Given the success of the International
Interdisciplinary Conference - Politeness:
reflections and (re)inventions, held at
Universidade Aberta, Lisbon, in 2012, and
considering (im)politeness to be a phenomenon
not strictly limited to linguistico-discursive
approaches, the International Interdisciplinary
Conference - (IM)POLITENESS: expression of
culture(s) invites researchers to reflect on
diverse manifestations of (im)politeness that
derive from cultural idiosyncrasies, revealing
the similarities and dichotomies an
intercultural approach can bring to light.
The conference will be held at the University
Cruzeiro do Sul, São Paulo, Brazil.
The program includes plenary sessions, section
work, discussions, and a round table on the
following issues:
1. (Im)politeness and linguistic and textual
practices
2. Pragmatics and (inter)culture
3. (Im)politeness and its literary and artistic
manifestations
4. (Im)politeness and style
5. (Im)politeness and professional
practices
6. (Im)politeness in the digital age
