Scope and topics of the conference

According to the order of the President of the Republic of Azerbaijan, 2024 was declared the "Year of Solidarity for the Green World" in the Republic of Azerbaijan in order to strengthen international solidarity in the global fight against climate change. Since the 20th century, the increase in environmental problems and the fact that they have caused serious climate changes have also made experts in the humanitarian field think, and new fields of science have been created in this regard. Ecolinguistics, ecocriticism, and ecotranslation are the priority directions of sciences such as linguistics, literary studies, translation studies, parallel to the constantly changing and renewing world, the emergence of literary texts, the interpretation and translation of such new realities in linguistics and literary studies. Therefore, as a task arising from the order, I invite you to the conference organized jointly by the departments of "Theoretical Linguistics and Turkish Languages", "Azerbaijan and World Literature", "Translation", "Foreign Languages and Literature" of the Baku Eurasian University. We invite you to participate in order to emphasize that the concept of ecological consciousness is very important, to master the concept of ecological awareness, as well as to analyze artistic and scientific texts on the relevant topic.
