CALL FOR PAPERS
Adaptation and adaptability have become unavoidable in an era defined by profound change and crisis - ecological, socio-political, economic, medical, technological, and beyond. We invite submissions to CL2027 that explore adaptation and adaptability as active strategies of awareness, resilience, responsibility, and resistance (amongst other things).
Specifically, we invite submissions that adopt (and adapt) corpus methodologies to explore the many and major disciplinary and global challenges we face today by considering the adaptation and adaptability of various textual and communication strategies pertinent to these challenges.
We welcome paper presentations, poster presentations, thematic panels, and pre-conference workshops that explore any aspect of corpus linguistics methodology and theory, but we particularly encourage submissions addressing the core theme of linguistic adaptation and adaptability in relation to the following dimensions, which can include but are not limited to:
1.) Innovation and adaptation of Corpus Methods 2.) Corpus Linguistics: applications and impacts 3.) Variation, Varieties, and Pedagogy 4.) Corpus Linguistics and Artificial Intelligence
Paper, poster, and thematic panel abstracts, and pre-conference workshop proposals, should be submitted via the CL2027 CMT submission point. The language of the conference is English. We especially encourage submission of abstracts from early-career researchers, including postgraduate research students and postdoctoral researchers. Find details of how to submit a proposal here:
