Meeting Description:
The Institute of Modern Greek Studies [Manolis Triandaphyllidis Foundation], Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, is pleased to announce its 2nd Symposium on the Greek Language in Spoken Communication, to be held in Thessaloniki on 13-14 October 2016. The Symposium is organized as part of the Institute's activities on spoken Greek and in the context of the research project Greek Talk-in-interaction and Conversation Analysis.
This year’s Symposium will focus on ‘Questions-answers in Greek Talk-in-interaction’ and the aim is to examine systematically aspects of such sequences in Greek ordinary conversation and in more institutional settings. Moreover, this year’s Symposium will host a session on questions-answers in other languages, so that discussion of the Greek data can be set in the cross-linguistic perspective of talk-in-interaction. The keynote speaker of the Symposium will be Professor Marja-Leena Sorjonen (University of Helsinki), Director of the Center of Excellence in Intersubjectivity and Interaction.
Organizing Committee:
Th.-S. Pavlidou, Professor Emerita (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki) and member of the Institute's Board of Directors (Director of the Greek Talk-in-interaction and Conversation Analysis research project)
Chr. Tzitzilis, Professor of Historical and Balkan Linguistics (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki) and member of the Institute's Board of Directors
G. Papanastassiou, Associate Professor of Historical Linguistics (Aristotle University of Thessaloniki) and Director of the Institute
