ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS

Fifth Symposium On Iconicity In Language And Literature

17-20 March 2005

Unesco Chair For Translation Studies And Intercultural Communication

The Jagiellonian University

Krakow

The meeting in Krakow will be the fifth in a series of international
symposia on iconicity in language and literature. Iconicity, i.e. form
miming meaning and/or form miming form, is an inherently interdisciplinar=
y
phenomenon, involving linguistic and textual aspects and linking them to
visual and acoustic aspects. Therefore, we invite academic contributions
by not only linguists and literary scholars, but also scholars whose
interest lie in the relationship of the verbal with the musical or visual
arts. Papers are expected to present detailed case studies of iconically
used forms on all levels of linguistic, musical and visual representation=
s
and in all varieties of their use. The conference language will be
English, but papers may be given in Polish, with simultaneous interpretin=
g
provided upon request. The publication of the selected papers given at th=
e
symposium will be in English. For more information on previous symposia,
and on the 'iconicity project', see our homepage
  (http://home.hum.uva.nl/iconicity)

We welcome proposals addressing any of these issues. Abstracts (not more
than 500 words) together with a brief c.v. should be sent to one of the
following address by 15 November 2004 at the latest:
