Recently, much attention has been given to the idea of the language of food in the media and among linguists and other scholars across the disciplines. In addition, a number of books concerning this topic have been published in the last three years. Authors analyze food from various angles such as the linguistic history of culinary terms; the linguistics of food advertising and culinary arts programs; the linguistic components of recipes, menus, labels, restaurant reviews; the discourse of food production and consumption; and the comparison of cooking and dining practices across cultures. The ILA invites submissions that explore these and other connections between linguistics and food.
The Long Island Marriott Hotel is Hofstra's preferred hotel, as it is the most conveniently located to the conference venue (less than a mile away).
The Long Island Marriott is offering a special group rate: $179.00 per night.
