We are pleased to announce the Call for Papers for the 5th International Conference of the American Pragmatics Association (AMPRA), held 16-18 October 2020 at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. The goal of this conference is to promote both theoretical and applied research in pragmatics, and to bring together scholars who are interested in different subfields of pragmatics (philosophical, linguistic, cognitive, social, intercultural, interlanguage, etc.).

 

MAIN TOPICS:

1.Pragmatics:theoriesneo-Gricean approaches, relevance theory, theory of mind, meaning, role of context, common ground, semantics-pragmatics interface, explicature, implicature, speech act theory,presuppositions,grammaticalization, im/politeness, etc.

2.Experimental pragmatics:models of language and meaning, experimental techniques, scalar implicatures, reference resolution, interpretation of figurative language, etc.

3.Intercultural, cross-cultural and societal aspects of pragmatics:research involving more than one language and culture, or varieties of one language, intercultural pragmatics, interlanguage pragmatics, variational pragmatics, social pragmatics, lingua franca, computer-mediated communication (CMC), bilinguals’ and heritage speakers’ language use, intercultural misunderstandings, effect of dual language and multilingual systems on the development and use of pragmatic skills, language of aggression and conflict, etc.

4.Applications:usage and corpus-based approaches, pragmatic competence, teachability and learnability of pragmatic skills, pragmatic variations within one language and across languages, developmental pragmatics, cyber pragmatics, etc.

 

In addition to proposals for these topical strands we invite proposals for a special Panel on African American Pragmatics to promote research in this underserved field. This panel is chaired by Lisa Green, University of Massachusetts, Amherst, USA.
