Abstract
The
aim
of
this
conference
was
to
explore
Systemic
Functional
Linguistics
insights
into
language
use
in
today’s
digital
age.
Following
the
SFL
proclivity
for
trinocular
perspectives,
the
conference
theme
was
realized
through
papers
that
used
SFL
to
analyze
new
types
of
text
that
were
born
(or
conceived)
digitally,
such
as
blogs,
tweets
and
facebook;
through
texts
that
achieve
digitality,
being
digitally
conceived
manifestations
of
established
practices,
such
as
giving
medical
advice,
mourning,
and
teacher
education;
and
through
papers
that
had
digitality
thrust
upon
them
in
that
new
digital
methods
including
corpus
tools
were
used
to
provide
new
perspectives
in
SFL
analysis
of
areas
such
as
register,
ellipsis
and
research
articles.
