Conference description
Discourse Pragmatics is a rapidly developing field that explores the ways in which language is used to communicate meaning in context. How do people use language to achieve their communicative goals? How does context influence the interpretation of meaning? What is the pragmatics of different types of discourse such as conversation, storytelling, and academic writing? How do different languages differ in their pragmatics? How is the pragmatics of language affected by new technologies? To what extent does emotion or morality govern discourse communication? This conference aims to bring together established and emerging scholars from diverse backgrounds to explore the latest research and trends in Discourse Pragmatics.This conference will be hosted by Zhejiang International Studies University located in Hangzhou, China, organized by the School of English Studies and the Institute of Discourse Pragmatics, and co-organized by Journal of Zhejiang International Studies University, Springer Nature and John Benjamins. We are looking forward to your participation in this great event.
