THÈMES DU COLLOQUE : Langage, Cognition et Créativité
Depuis ses débuts, la linguistique cognitive a pris au sérieux l’étude de l’innovation et de la créativité dans le langage, bien au-delà des recherches sur le langage figuré. Le sujet de la créativité est toujours de l’actualité dans plusieurs disciplines, et non seulement la linguistique (voir scientific statement ci-dessous). En effet, aucune discipline ne semble avoir le monopole du savoir sur la créativité, thème de recherche interdisciplinaire par excellence. Ainsi, le 8e colloque international de l’Association française de linguistique cognitive (www.aflico.fr), aura comme thème le langage, la cognition, et la créativité. AFLiCo 8 à Mulhouse en 2019 fait suite aux colloques AFLiCo à Bordeaux (2005), Lille (2007), Nanterre (2009), Lyon (2011), Lille (2013), Grenoble (2015), and Liege (2017).
Nous encourageons la soumission de contributions sur le rôle que joue la cognition dans la créativité verbale dans des contextes divers (e.g. dans les conversations, dans la rhétorique, dans l’humour, dans la communication interculturelle, dans les arts, etc.). Seront également bienvenus les études sur la créativité dans des gestes, dans la multimodalité, et des études sur le sujet par des approches diverses (e.g. linguistique de corpus, sociolinguistique, psycholinguistique, etc.). Les organisateurs encouragent la soumission de propositions de communication par de jeunes chercheurs. Les communications peuvent se faire en anglais ou en français, et seront de 20 minutes maximum, suivi de 8 minutes de questions.
PROCEDURE DE SOUMISSION
Les propositions de résumés pour des présentations orales (20 minutes) ou de posters seront évaluées en double aveugle. Elles doivent être soumises de manière anonyme et contenir au maximum 500 mots (à l’exclusion des références bibliographiques). L’envoi des résumés se fait uniquement sur la plate-forme SciencesConf (http://aflico8.sciencesconf.org).
Format des propositions :
500 mots, Times, interligne simple, titre en gras centré au sommet de la page, nombre de mots visible, anonymat.
Question de recherche clairement explicitée, signification et originalité pour le champ, méthode, analyse, discussion.
Exemples, tableaux, figures et références bibliographiques sur une seconde page.

OBJECTIVES
This will be the 8th biennial international conference of AFLiCo, the French Association for Cognitive Linguistics (www.aflico.fr). It follows the previous AFLiCo international conferences held in Bordeaux (2005), Lille (2007), Nanterre (2009), Lyon (2011), Lille (2013), Grenoble (2015), and Liege (2017).
We welcome 20 minute presentations (with 8 minutes for follow-up questions) from researchers interested in linguistic creativity. Interdisciplinary papers are welcome which address verbal creativity in conversations, humor, written communication, the verbal arts, multimodal forms, gestures, etc. Because creativity is of interest to many different researchers (see scientific statement below), we also welcome papers from those working on creativity in fields such as psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, corpus linguistics, pragmatics, and psychology. The organizers especially encourage young researchers to submit an abstract. Presentations may be made in French or English.
SUBMISSION PROCEDURE
Abstract submission is to be done via a login on the conference the website. Abstracts will be submitted to double blind review. They should be fully anonymous and not exceed 500 words (references excluded). Indicate if you wish to present a poster or give a paper in the general session.
IMPORTANT DATES
Submission deadline: 1 December 2019
Notification of acceptance: 15 January 2019
Conference dates: 5 June 2019 to 7 June 2019
Conference dinner to end the conference: 8 pm – 11 pm, Friday 7 June 2019
REGISTRATION
Details about the registration procedure, registration deadlines, and local hotels will be posted on the conference website as soon as they become available (https://aflico8.sciencesconf.org/ ). AFLiCo members, students, and early birds will be eligible for reduced registration fees.
CONFERENCE LANGUAGES
English and French
PUBLICATION
We encourage submission of articles based on conference presentations or poster in our on-line peer-reviewed journal CogniTextes, (https://journals.openedition.org/cognitextes/ ).

AFLICO 8 Motivation – Scientific Statement
Since the publication of works such as “A Mechanism of Creativity” (Turner & Fauconnier, 1999) and Language and Creativity: The Art of Common Talk (Carter, 2004), creativity has remained a major research topic in many different disciplines. For example, psychologists have found creativity to be involved in problem solving (Davidson & Sternberg, 2003), cognitive development (Kaufman & Baer 2016; Smith & Ward, 2012), and human cognition more generally (Sternberg, 1999; Sternberg & Kaufman, 2018). There also been recent work on creativity in art, literature, and science (Czabi, 2018; Hoorn, 2014; Otis 2015), as well as on creativity in imagery, language, and behavior (Veale et al., 2013). Cognitive neuroscientists have also started to take an interest in creativity (Abraham, 2018).
In linguistics, there has been much research on creativity in several areas, such as, for example, figurative language (Kövecses, 2010 & 2017; Langlotz, 2006; Müller, 2010; Suárez-Toste, 2017); genre studies (Hamilton & Pratt, 2009); humor (Brône et al, 2015); internet humor (Dancygier & Vandelanotte, 2017); language play (Bell, 2016); lexical creativity (Fischer, 2014; Pitzl, 2013; Munat, 2007); multilingualism (Kharkhurin, 2012; Ishiyama, 2014); mulitmodality (Hidalgo-Downing et al, 2014; El Refaie 2015); pragmatics (Malafouris et al, 2014; Tseng, 2016; Vega Moreno, 2007); translation studies (Cifuentes-Férez and Meseguer Cutillas, 2018); and world Englishes (Deshors et al, 2018; Pitzl, 2018).
In sum, interest in creativity is widespread because the topic seems to cut across disciplinary boundaries. This is no doubt thanks to the countless domains in which we see human creativity occur. The timing thus seems right for AFLICO 8 to have as its theme — language, cognition, and creativity — and to invite submissions on the topic for presentation in Mulhouse.
