    (Im)politeness is a core interpersonal function of language, deeply linked to sociocultural values, and fundamental for meaning and context interpretation. The Conference aims to analyse facework practices and (im)politeness strategies in tv series, considering a variety of sources (drama, comedy, docu-series, talk shows, sitcoms, animated series, etc.). By welcoming different approaches, including pragmatics, stylistics, argumentation, multimodality, and characterisation, the conference offers a space for interdisciplinary exchange.

    We invite proposals for 20-minute papers (in Italian or English) on a wide range of topics related to (im)politeness in televisual discourse. The main topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

    ● (Im)politeness in televised representation;

    ● (Im)politeness as fictional characterisation in tv series;

    ● Mock-politeness, humour, sarcasm, banter;

    ● Multimodal approaches to (im)polite non-verbal language;

    ● Rhetoric in inter-character dynamics;

    ● Stylistics and narration in tv series;

    ● Persuasive discourse;

    ● Taboo language;

    ● Audio-visual translation and (Im)politeness Theory;

    ● Further methodological approaches to audience perception and involvement.

    We welcome contributions from scholars across a variety of disciplines, including: linguistic and literary pragmatics, stylistics, argumentation, multimodality, media studies, and sociolinguistics. The Conference will also encourage further critical insights on the role of online streaming platforms (Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+, Paramount+, Hulu, etc.) in language use.

    Abstracts should not exceed 300 words and sent as email attachments in .doc or .docx format to c.ghezzi@unior.it and r.esposito12@unior.it by 21/06/2024. 21/07/2024

    ▪ full name;

    ▪ academic position;

    ▪ affiliation;

    ▪ email address;

    ▪ keywords (5 max.)

    ▪ references (5 max.)

    Notice of acceptance will be sent by 31/07/2024.

    Following the Conference, authors will be invited to publish their papers in a collection of essays.
