Meeting Description:
The conference will be organised
around two large thematic areas of linguistics and literature, pivoting around the
concept of intersection.
On the one hand, this notion will be widely
applied to linguistic studies, covering the following thematic lines:
-
Diachronic and synchronic linguistic studies (phonetics, phonology; morphosyntax;
semantics; lexis; discourse)
- Linguistic variation and change
-
Sociolinguistics
- Dialectology
- Pragmatics and discourse
- Corpus
linguistics
- Contrastive and translation studies
- Applied linguistics
-
Acquisition and teaching of first, second and foreign languages
- Bilingualism
and multilingualism
- Language Teaching
On the other hand, this idea of
intersection will be approached in relation to the following thematic lines within
literary studies:
- Literary studies covering all periods (from the Middle
Ages to contemporary times)
- Reception studies
- Comparative literature
- Teaching of literature
- Children’s literature and literature for young
adults
- Transnational literature
- Cultural and gender studies
In
addition, the Conference will be honoured with three plenary presentations by
renowned experts such as Barbara De Cock (Université Catholique de Louvain), Lucía
Loureiro Porto (Universitat de les Illes Balears) and Hernán Sánchez Martínez de
Pinillos (University of Maryland).
