Conference

2nd ESTIDIA Conference 2013
Dialogue-driven Change in the Public Sphere

Department of Educational Sciences, Psychology, Communication
University of Bari “Aldo Moro”
3-5 October, 2013

The call centres on the metaphor of ‘terra’ – the various grounds
social scientists stand on to articulate their social constructions.
And we invite contributors to use this metaphor to explore the
established, the new and the unknown in organizational discourse
analysis.

Multimodality can today be seen as one of the most influential semiotic theories for analyzing media artefacts. However, the concepts of this theory are ambiguously and heterogeneously widespread, especially with regard to approaches in Germany on the one hand and those within the international context on the other. Definitions of modality and even mediality differ from each other in terms of their general basis which, from a national perspective, is too often focused on language as the main point of description.
