In furtherance to sustaining robust engagement in the field of pragmatics, the Pragmatics Association of Nigeria will be hosting one of the foremost proponents of contemporary theories in the field,  Professor Emeritus Jacob Louis Mey, in November 2020.

Jacob Mey’s theory of pragmatic acts, based on his notion of “pragmeme”, has received wider acceptance in the continents of Africa, Europe, Asia and many other parts of the globe. This Professor Emeritus worked in the Institute of Language and Communication at the University of Southern Denmark before he retired in 1996.

It is, therefore, a great opportunity to hear directly from this erudite scholar. Participation in this programme is by subscription which requires a token from interested members of the public across the world.
