Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to announce that the Institute of Linguistics at the John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin, Poland, is organising the 11th meeting of Linguistics Beyond and Within – International Linguistics Conference in Lublin. The conference, to be held on 17–18 October 2024 in Lublin, will be hosted by the Department of Applied Linguistics, the Department of Theoretical Linguistics, the Department of Contrastive English-Polish Studies and the Department of Celtic Studies. This year, the talks will be guided by the following leitmotif:

EXPLORING THE SPECTRUM OF LINGUISTIC INQUIRY: THEORETICAL, APPLIED AND HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVES

As previously, we would like to invite scholars with innovative approaches to linguistics viewed from a range of intra- and interdisciplinary perspectives. We wish to encourage all linguists representing various theoretical models and practical applications to present their contributions during live oral sessions, with each paper presentation scheduled for a 20-minute talk followed by a 10-minute discussion. The language of the conference is English.

LIST OF TOPICS:
• theoretical linguistics: syntax, morphology, semantics, phonetics, phonology, corpus studies
• applied linguistics: language teaching & language acquisition, pragmatics, discourse analysis, translation studies, sociolinguistics psycholinguistics

CALL FOR HISTORICAL LINGUISTICS WORKSHOP CONTRIBUTIONS
This year, we are pleased to announce the addition of a new section to our conference programme which is dedicated to historical descriptions of the English language. We warmly invite scholarly contributions exploring linguistic analyses of Old, Middle, and (Early) Modern English, as well as studies examining contemporary English but anchored in its historical context.
