S18: Transferring Knowledge within Academic and
Institutional Contexts: A Focus on New and Hybrid Digital Genres
The web
has become a privileged access platform to knowledge for an increasingly globalized
society. The spread of electronic platforms as well as the use of English as a
vehicle of international communication has brought with it the emergence of new
written and spoken genres or the adaptation of existing ones to the digital world.
This seminar aims to provide a forum to present some of the latest
contributions to the topic. Contributions from different analytical approaches are
welcome. These approaches will preferably include genre-based analysis,
intercultural rhetoric, corpus studies, multimodal analysis, computer-mediated
discourse analysis and metadiscourse. The following topics may be addressed:
- The use of English as an international language in academic or institutional
digital communication
- The discursive construction of identity in academic and
institutional discourse in the net
- Emergent and reconfigured digital genres in
academic and institutional settings: rhetorical and discursive features
- The
impact of language/culture and discipline in the shaping of academic or
institutional web-mediated genres
- The interaction of verbal and visual modes
in academic and institutional digital contexts
- The role of digital genres in
expert to non-expert communication in EAP/ESP contexts
Contributors are
invited to send an abstract of their proposed paper of not more than 300 words
(excluding references) by no later than 16 February 2018 to both convenors.
Acceptance will be notified by 28 February 2018.
