Details

The Second International Conference on Argumentation and Rhetoric aims to explore all the possible angles given in an interdisciplinary approach to matters of argumentation and rhetoric. It is needless to say how important these topics have become over the turbulent times of recent changes in economy, politics, geopolitics, education, culture, clash of cultures, communication, media, art, and public space. We take all signs of a crisis as a productive challenge and try to follow the occurring paradigm shifts by carefully analyzing the fields that offer an opportunity to build up a flexible and functional vocabulary and methodology that prove to be as adequate as possible to the dynamic of changes. The conference offers a platform not only for both theoretical and practical approaches, but also to those works that reject the validity of such a distinction. Papers, talks and participation from all related fields are welcome!

The language of the conference is English.

Registration fee. The early bird conference fee is 120 EUR, late registration fee (no later that 15th of August 2012) is 140 EUR. The registration fee includes the conference bag, publication of the book of abstracts and papers sent in time in the peer reviewed Conference Proceedings. Meals and refreshments are offered by the organizers for the registered participants. Participants are kindly asked to cover their accommodation and travel expenses themselves.
