[Commlist] CfP: Fifth Middlesex Roundtable on Signs, Language and Communication

CALL FOR PAPERS

Fifth Middlesex Roundtable on Signs, Language and Communication

27-28 March 2023

INDETERMINACY

*//*

We would like to invite you to send titles for your discussion at the 
/Middlesex Roundtable on Signs, Language and Communication/ 
<https://www.mdx.ac.uk/our-research/research-groups/language-and-communication-research-cluster/roundtable-on-signs-language-and-communication>. 
The Roundtable is an annual workshop launched in January 2019 to 
encourage discussion between three paradigms of language and 
communication theory: the integrationism of Roy Harris and his 
followers, biosemiotics and philosophy of communication.

These areas of thought and scholarship share assumptions regarding the 
fundamental role played by communicative interaction in the emergence of 
signification, meaning and relationality. They also share views of 
communication and language that are not limited to the understanding of 
language as a code-based domain.

This year’s Roundtable will focus on the topic of indeterminacy as it is 
played out in integrationism, biosemiotics and philosophy of communication.

The Roundtable will take place at Middlesex University on 27 and 28 
March 2022 in hybrid format. This means that you can either attend and 
present in person or on zoom.

As usual, the Roundtable will be a small-scale workshop, with 10-minute 
presentations and long conversations (flipped conference style). This 
format allows for an in-depth exchange of ideas, open questions, 
speculations and considerations and makes the Roundtable an ideal 
environment to present and discuss work at the frontiers of research in 
our disciplines.

For you to participate, we need a proposed _title_, along with a brief 
(two-sentence) _description_ of what you will discuss, relating to the 
topic of indeterminacy in the context of integrationism and/or 
biosemiotics and/or philosophy of communication, along with your _name 
and institutional affiliation_.

Proposals to be sent no later than 13 February 2023 to:

/Paul Cobley //(p.cobley /at/ mdx.ac.uk)/ <mailto:(p.cobley /at/ mdx.ac.uk)>//

/Adrian Pablé //(apable /at/ hku.hk)/ <mailto:(apable /at/ hku.hk)>//

/Johan Siebers //(j.siebers /at/ mdx.ac.uk)/ <mailto:(j.siebers /at/ mdx.ac.uk)>//
