Short Abstract (for more detailed information see the symposium webpage): The symposium will focus on storytelling in talk-in-interaction. To tell stories about experiences or events beyond the deictic hic et nunc fulfills different pragmatic, discursive and interactional functions in talk-in-interaction. Since participants are fully involved in this activity, storytelling in talk-in-interaction is a dynamic and embodied semiotic phenomenon that unfolds sequentially within discursive and interactional contexts, and the emerging stories are motivated by these contexts while their very concrete linguistic shape depends on them. From a functional viewpoint, interactive storytelling accomplishes different social actions like complaining, trouble telling, answering questions, expressing solidarity and soliciting empathy. We are inviting researchers from different perspectives on oral narration in talk-in-interaction, such as Conversation Analysis, Interactional Linguistics, Discourse Analysis, or oral syntax. The languages of presentation in the symposium may be English, French, German or Spanish, provided that the slides are translated into English to allow inter-comprehension with the audience.
