​Special Interest Groups (SIGS)

Proposals for SIGs at PALA2025, Aston University, Birmingham, UK.
The organising committee is pleased to invite proposals for SIGs at PALA2025. 
The conference theme is Digital Stylistics. Whilst we welcome proposals for SIGs in any area of stylistics, we are particularly keen on inviting proposals in areas that relate to this theme, and that explore the relationship between stylistics as an academic discipline and various kinds of digital texts, tools and practices. Potential areas of interest include, but are not limited to

• stylistic analyses of digital texts
• digital methods for the analysis of texts
• representations of technology and digital themes in literary and non-literary texts
• digital futures e.g. speculative fictions
• digital creative practices
• digital reading practices
• explorations of theoretical, methodological, or ethical issues in relation to digital approaches to text production, reception or interpretation

Complete the proposal form here by 11.59pm on Monday 4th November 2024. 
Call for Individual Papers to follow.
