IALIC
4TH Annual Conference
Lancaster University, UK
The Intercultural Narrative
14th-16th December 2003

CALL FOR PAPERS

We warmly invite you to submit a proposal for the 4th IALIC conference.  The conference, which has as its main themeThe Intercultural Narrative, proposes to investigate the various forms of this emerging genre, its theoretical foundations and its sociopolitical implications.  In the context of the conference, narrative may be interpreted in the widest sense as encompassing art, film, music, photography, literature and documentary as well as the various media through which it is expressed.  We understand its object to be that of capturing the state of being 'between cultures' as a consequence of physical or psychological displacement, a principle which may be reflected in the content and structure of the narrative and in the combination of media employed.  It raises questions of identity: how identity is constructed through narrative, whether the ideal of coherence is attainable... and also the ethical implications of attempting to 'narrate the other', at the level of the individal or, between communities, through ethnographic study.  It also raises questions of genre: what generic forms does the intercultural narrative take and how do its different discourses interact?  Finally, it will consider the processes of articulation between intercultural narratives and their social contexts.  The conference is interdisciplinary and is intended to appeal to researchers in the Arts and Humanities as much as to historians, social scientists and cultural theoreticians.  It is being organised jointly by the International Association for Languages and Intercultural Communication (IALIC) and the Institute for Advanced Studies (IAS) at Lancaster University with sponsorship from The British Academy, the Institut Français and the Goethe Institut.  The conference will include an independent forum to which contributions are also invited, on the pedagogical implications of intercultural study within Higher Education.  This will be co-ordinated by the UK Subject Centre for Language, Linguistics and Area Studies (see LTSN home page).

Keynote Speakers: David Bellos, Princeton University, Carolyn Cooper, University of the West Indies, Günther Kress, London Institute of Education, Crispin Thurlow, Washington State University.

Keynote Interlocutors in a special debate on the roles and responsibilities of the 'intercultural author': Ismail Kadare (The File on H., Albanian Spring...) and Herta Müller (Herztier/The Land of Green Plums...).

FULL INFORMATION ON EVERY ASPECT OF THE CONFERENCE - INCLUDING FORMS FOR PROPOSALS - IS AVAILABLE ON THE IALIC WEBSITE www.ialic.org <http://www.ialic.org>. IF YOU HAVE ANY PERSONAL QUERIES OF ANY KIND PLEASE E-MAIL [log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]> AND WE SHALL RESPOND WITHOUT DELAY.
