Submissions are invited for the 5th New Zealand Discourse Conference from academics and others interested in discourse analysis that addresses theoretical, methodological or empirical research in a variety of applications.

CADAAD 2016 Panel: Discourse Space and Evaluation across Disciplines and Domains

We invite abstracts to contribute to the panel on Discourse Space and Evaluation across Disciplines and Domains. In this panel we want to build on recent developments in Discourse Space Theory (DST) and its application to the study of evaluative discourse (e.g. Chilton 2014; Filardo-Llamas et al. 2015). The aim of this panel is to explore different ways of doing DA for understanding the relationship between discourse, subjectivity, intentionality and social action. The opanel will include much time for discussion.
Deadline for submission 10 nov. 2015!
