International Association of Literary Semantics (IALS)
Description
Established in 1990, the International Association of Literary Semantics exists to support the exchange of ideas among academics and scholars who are interested in advancing the understanding of the bases of literary meaning. To that end the association holds an international conference periodically (approximately once every four years).
Members of the association come from a large variety of disciplines—but perhaps chiefly linguistics, literary studies, philosophy, and psychology—and use a range of theoretical perspectives and empirical methods.
The Association enjoys friendly relations, and some sharing of personnel, with several other international associations devoted to the broadly linguistic analysis of literature, perhaps most notably the Poetics and Linguistics Association (PALA).
