Scholars working in any field related to the Seminar's main topic are welcome to participate.
The topic of this year's seminar will be the fit between linguistic approaches dealing with interaction or communication and approaches which give some prominence to the role of cognition in language. This distinction between the external and the internal workings of language has found a clear expression in the different objects of study in pragmatics and in cognitive linguistics. The emphasis of the contributions expected from the participants can be on either of the two poles, but we are interested in seeing how the boundaries between paradigms can be crossed. Participants are invited to submit abstracts for 20 minute papers. These abstracts should not exceed 150 words and should be sent to any of the addresses below, specifying thematic area, author, affiliation and contact address.
