Interdisciplinary graduate conference at Munich University, February 16-18 2011, Palaeontological Museum Munich, Richard-Wagner-Straße 10
The doctoral programmes of Linguistics and Literature at Munich University invite you to join their interdisciplinary conference Speaking about Boundaries. Multilingualism in Europe and the World.
In the encounter with the language of the ‘other’, even one’s own may seem like a potential foreign language, reveal strange or estranging elements, but may also point to what is alien in the other language. It is particularly minority languages, official languages and language prohibitions that render the dimensions and potentials of language policy observable and show how language can be used as an instrument of the demonstration and realization of power. At the same time, language contacts can also lead to the emergence of hybrids, new forms of language and language play – notably in the era of globalization. Artificial languages and utopian language designs often constitute reactions to the difficulties and possibilities of multilingualism, or they are the results of an artful, creative handling of the medium. The conference is dealing with the phenomenon of multilingualism by focusing at three core areas:
