Tenth Bonn Applied English Linguistics Conference (BAELc10)

The 10th iteration of the BAEL conference took place in the form of a virtual conference on Thursday, 10th June to Saturday, 12th June 2021. 

Instead of a special focus topic, this extended version of our yearly conference was covering research from all areas and strands of Applied Linguistics, with three established keynote speakers representing different aspects of the field:

Professor Dr. Dr. h.c. Juliane House (Univeristy of Hamburg)

The Pragmatics of English as a lingua franca

Professor Dr. J. César Félix-Brasdefer (Indiana University Bloomington)

Pragmatic competence, awareness, and intercultural impoliteness: A sociopragmatic perspective 

Professor Dr. Klaus P. Schneider (University of Bonn)

On first-order pragmatics: Speech act recognition, the meta-illocutionary lexicon, and some other ideas

Please see the full schedule and the book of abstracts below.

We want to thank everyone who participated in the BAELc10 and made this year's 10th-anniversary edition particularly special.

We are looking forward to welcoming you to our next BAEL conference!
