Cristina Lastres-López receives AESLA’s (Spanish Association for Applied Linguistics) 2023 Book Award for Early Career Researchers

We are delighted to announce that Cristina Lastres-López, a member of VLCG, has received AESLA’s 2023 Award for Early Career Researchers for her monograph From subordination to insubordination: A functional-pragmatic approach to if/si-constructions in English, French and Spanish spoken discourse (Bern: Peter Lang, 2021; 254 pp.).

Cristina’s study constitutes a groundbreaking approach to if/si-constructions, from a functional-pragmatic and corpus-based perspective. The theoretical framework is based on the three metafunctions distinguished in Systemic Functional Linguistics, and the data analysed are retrieved from parliamentary discourse and conversations corpora. The examination of conditional constructions and cases of insubordination in parallel offers new light on the characterization of if/si-constructions and their uses and functions in interaction.

Congratulations!
