7th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON LANGUAGE, LITERATURE AND CULTURE (ICLLC) DECEMBER 14-16, 2018
7th International Conference on Language, Literature, and Culture
Preamble
Humanities scholars all over the world are preoccupied with various ways of understanding language, literature and culture. In addition to their interrelations and interdependence, the new ideas and approaches emerging from various disciplines like literary theory, philosophy, anthropology, linguistics, pragmatics and discourse analysis alongside technological revolution and socio-cultural transformations, have a bearing on our study of language and literature. The conference aims at exploring this dynamics with a focus on the complementary nature of language, literature and culture and their centrality in human life.
This year, we especially encourage papers that examine the intersection of digital technology and the Humanities. What are the new methodologies, theories, and sites of study that are emerging from this intersection? What kind of collaborations between the Humanities and Sciences must we envision for 21st century education and research? Papers that take up these and related issues can be submitted under the Digital Humanities, New Media Studies, and Future of Humanities Studies tracks.
