The conference will offer a forum for
the presentation of multidisciplinary
perspectives on the concept of time and
its embodied, phenomenological
experience as expressed in diverse
systems, above all human language, and
should thus be of interest to students
and researchers in philosophy,
anthropology and psychology of time.
Also welcome are scholars who
investigate temporal experience, time
expressions and categorization in
language and literature, including
metaphor and figurative language,
learning-acquisition of temporal
concepts as well as annotation and
identification of temporal structures in
language corpora. In addition, the
organizers hope to attract researchers
who propose cognitive, formal and other
models of time and time-related
dimensions in the framework of event
structures. Presentations pertaining to
the construal and coding of events in
linguistic or non-linguistic narrative,
gestures and other forms of human
communication systems would be relevant.
