Deadline for submitting papers at the IV International Symposium on Functional Linguistics ends on April 7th

The IV International Symposium on Functional Linguistics, to be held from May 31 to June 2, 2017, at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, aims to bring together undergraduates, postgraduates and researchers from Brazilian universities and abroad who are dedicated to linguistic studies, based on functionalist theoretical aspects and their interfaces.
Providing a space for the dissemination of research and, mainly, for reflection and joint discussion on different objects of investigation, the event will feature the presence of three major international lecturers: Carlos Gouveia (University of Lisbon, Portugal), Gabriele Diewald (University of Graz, Austria) and Kees Hengeveld (University of Amsterdam, Germany).
In addition to these three guests, some of the main functionalist and/or cognitivist researchers in Brazil have also confirmed their presence, among them, Erotilde Pezatti (UNESP/SJRP), Maria Helena de Moura Neves (UNESP/Araraquara), Maria Maura Cezario (UFRJ), Maria Medianeira de Souza (UFPE), Mariangela Rios de Oliveira (UFF), Roberto Gomes Camacho (UNESP/SJRP) and Sebastião Carlos Leite Gonçalves (UNESP).
