Programme: XXXI Annual Conference of Polish Association for American Studies
The thematic focus of the XXXI Annual Polish Association for American Studies conference falls on cadences of speech and silence in American literature, culture and politics. In its original signification captured by the 1964 Simon and Garfunkel song, “the sound of silence” stands not only for thwarted communication, inability of people to communicate, the dissonance between speech and silence, but also alternative, non-verbal means of communication, hinting at a whole myriad of possibilities that the original curse of silence does not immediately suggest.

The conference represents an attempt to bring together two successful, cyclical events that have taken place over the years, that is, conferences on topics in applied linguistics, organized by the University of Opole, and conferences on classroom-oriented research, undertaken by the State University of Applied Sciences, Konin, in cooperation with the Faculty of Pedagogy and Fine Arts of Adam Mickiewicz University, Kalisz. The conference will be devoted to various aspects of research conducted in foreign and second language classrooms, offering an important forum for disseminating latest research findings in this area, which is critical language pedagogy. The event will be of relevance not only to academics, researchers, teacher educators and materials writers, but also to language teachers wishing to enhance their instructional practices.
