Meeting Description:
Intenational Seminar on 'Heritage and
Exchanges': Multilingual and intercultural
approaches in training context
November 5-6, 2014, University of Reunion
Island, FLSH.
This seminar is organized by the Research
structure OSOI, and CCLC EA4078 and ICARE
EA4549 Research centers.
Heritage and Exchanges (« PATREC ») is an
international seminar which is the outcome of a
pluridisciplinary project grouping together a
number of research centres (CCLC EA4078, ICARE
EA4549 Reunion Island, LACES Bordeaux 2&4,
CALTS Hyderabad (India), AUSTRALEX Adelaide,
Australia). The main thrust of the project is a
reflection on scholarship and plural identity
constructions, with a specific focus on the
Indian Ocean area.
Keynote Speakers:
- PR Ghil'ad Zuckermann, The University of
Adelaide, South Australia
- PR Jean Paul Narcy-Combes, Université Paris 3
Sorbonne Nouvelle, France
Final Call for Papers:
As advocated by OSOI for 2014, the aim is to
set up a pluridisciplinary forum to discuss
concepts of “territory” and “mobility’’,
integrating “heritage and exchanges” in Indian
Ocean countries. It gives priority to
plurilingual and/ or intercultural approaches
in multilingual contexts and focuses on the
following areas.
1. « Heritage » (Patrimoine): Multilingual and
intercultural heritage and identity
construction (Patrimoine multilingue et
interculturel et construction identitaire).
Literature, Linguistics and Cinema are part of
this area whose main focus is heritage. These
will be analysed through the prism of
multilingualism and intercultural relations in
order to analyse the construction and evolution
of identity.
2. « Exchanges » (Échanges ) : Education
dynamics, learning and multilingualism,
interculturality and training (Dynamique
éducative, apprentissage et formation au
plurilinguisme et à l’interculturalité).
Exchanges are linked to education policies and
to cultural and language learning processes as
well as to teacher training in a plural
environment.
This heritage and exchanges attest to cultural
and linguistic pluralities which are part of
languages and cultures in contact, but which
also reveal a plural albeit partitioned world,
influenced by subjective representations,
relayed by educational and political practices
which do not contribute to the construction of
plural identities. (Kramsch, C. (2008) The
Multilingual Subject, OUP).
Submissions will focus on:
- Intercultural and multilingual heritage which
influences the construction of identity at the
level of the individual with fluctuating
processes,
- The dynamics of exchange, either at the level
of educational policy in multilingual and
intercultural contexts aiming at multilingual
education, or at the level of multilingual and
intercultural language learning processes in
order to measure their impact on the training
of future teachers.
