Language, Literature Process 2023


Since early 2020, we have been witnesses, actors and victims of rapid changes on a global scale. The consequences of the socio-economic and political crises seemingly driven by the global pandemic have been becoming more visible. The very act of venturing into ontological explorations of various aspects of contemporaneity might be deja vu, overdramatized and reminiscent of the early twentieth century. The processes underlying socio-political and economic changes have been the subject of research in social sciences and humanities throughout centuries, and they are particularly perceptible in language and literature. Their various aspects are inherent to both language and literature. In language, these changes are traced in the field of synchrony and diachrony at almost all grammatical levels, from the phonetic to the phonological, the morphological through morphosyntactic and syntactic, and they are visible in the discourse. 


If processual exploration is not long overdue in the post-pandemic times, riddled with war, socio-economic crises and overall uncertainty, we invite you as academics to participate in panels and discussions designed to provide an overall (processual) framework that describes these processes of contemporaneity - in language, literature and society overall. 

The opening of this year’s conference invited a reflection on how LLC has progressed since 2007. It is an honor and great responsibility to continue the tradition established by Professor Vesna Lopičić and Professor Biljana Mišić Ilić who have tenaciously worked on producing over 20 conference proceedings volumes in the past 15 years, and established lasting connections between researchers and academics from all over the world - the region, Europe, the US and Canada, and even China.

The contribution of this conference to the overall value of the research output of our institution, the Faculty of Philosophy in Niš, is invaluable.

The foundations laid by Professors Lopičić and Mišić Ilić in building LLC provide the space for the exchange of ideas, discussion, academic cooperation and dissemination of our research in varied academic circles. Our focus for the following years is to continue to maintain the international character of LLCs, as well as provide space for interdisciplinary approaches, maintaining the quality of the research output.

We rely on the members of the Academic Committee to continue to support and advise the organization of LLCs in the future, and we thank them for their invaluable support so far. The investment of creativity, diligence and enthusiasm of our panelists is noteworthy. We gratefully acknowledge the support of our plenary speakers, prof. Jasmina Đorđević, prof. Jelena Jovanović, prof. Tatjana Jukić and prof. Boban Arsenijević.
