[Commlist] DRAOI 2024 Summer Seminar Series - CFP

*DRAOI 2024 Summer Seminar Series*

For the fourth consecutive year, the Discourse Research Association of 
Ireland (DRAOI) is thrilled to announce the return of our Summer Seminar 
Series, scheduled for July and August 2024. We are inviting proposals 
for presentations for this year’s series.

In line with the inclusive ethos of DRAOI and the diverse pathways to 
discourse and discourse analysis represented by our membership, we 
welcome submissions focusing on discourse research in all its 
manifestations, including but not limited to:

  * (Critical) discourse analysis/studies
  * Discourse theory
  * Sociolinguistics
  * Pragmatics
  * Multimodal and/or digital discourses
  * Discourse, language, and ideology
  * Discourse with a specific subject focus: e.g., economics, gender and
    sexuality, policy, government and politics, media, education,
    industry, sustainability and climate change, ethics, sociology,
    psychology, communication, etc.

DRAOI’s annual Summer Seminar Series provides a congenial, informal 
environment for discourse researchers to share their work, connect and 
network with fellow discourse-oriented scholars, and participate in 
enriching discussions on a wide array of topics. Presenters can expect 
constructive and supportive feedback in a positive setting when 
presenting works in progress. The presentation format will vary based on 
the submissions received and may include:

  * An overview of a planned/in-progress research project or a summary
    of findings
  * A book talk (at any stage of production)
  * A summary of a recent publication
  * A conference presentation (including those presented elsewhere)
  * A workshop/tutorial on a specific disciplinary or methodological
    approach to discourse research
  * An overview of a Master's or PhD thesis
  * Creative proposals are also encouraged.

As in previous years, we prioritize talks from discourse researchers 
based in Ireland (north and south), with personal or professional ties 
to Ireland, and/or who are focusing on discourses within the Irish 
context. Additionally, we are committed to showcasing the work of 
scholars from diverse backgrounds at any career stage or status, 
including postgraduate researchers, unemployed/unaffiliated researchers, 
as well as senior academics.

To propose a talk for the Summer Seminar Series, please submit 
an*abstract of 200-300 words by 30 May 2024*via the submission form on 
our website.

All seminars will be conducted online and are free of charge for both 
speakers and attendees. Details regarding the schedule of presentations 
for the 2024 series, along with links to join the virtual talks, will be
