The main theme of CLC6 is the charting of the relationship between plurilingualism, linguistic variation, hybrid linguistic performances and alternative literacies. The hybridity and superdiversity of the contemporary linguistic landscape has been long acknowledged. Do language pedagogies \u00a0treat language as a complex semiotic resource? Do such pedagogies forge links between pluri- or multilingualism, linguistic variation, translanguaging and alternative literacy practices within and outside of the school context? Do such extant models ultimately debunk dominant literacy policies and practices?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We welcome papers on any aspect of multilingualism, linguistic variation and their place in school, at home and in alternative literacy sites. We also welcome proposals for a number of symposia and workshops \u00a0on these or related themes.<\/p>\n<p>Crossroads CLC6 is organized by the University of Cyprus (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ucy.ac.cy\/en\/\">www.ucy.ac.cy\/en\/<\/a>) and the Open University of Cyprus (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ouc.ac.cy\/web\/guest\/home\">https:\/\/www.ouc.ac.cy\/web\/guest\/home<\/a>), with the cooperation of Polydromo (<a href=\"http:\/\/polydromo.web.auth.gr\/index.php\/en\/\">http:\/\/polydromo.web.auth.gr\/index.php\/el-gr\/<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>\u03a4he languages of the conference are English and Greek.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.29.3&#8243;

A story past 10,000 years long has seen civilizations come and go, from Alexander the Great to Queen Cleopatra of Egypt, who stake their claim here.<\/p>\n<p class=\"accordion-heading\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>The island of beauty<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of beauty and love was born here. According to Greek mythology, Aphrodite was born when Uranus, the father of the gods, was castrated by his son Cronus. The severed genitals where then thrown into the ocean which began to churn and foam. From the \u201caphros\u201d (\u2018sea foam\u2019) arose Aphrodite (hence her name, meaning \u2018foam-arisen\u2019) and the girl floated ashore on a scallop shell. This iconic representation of Aphrodite as a mature \u201cVenus rising from the sea\u201d (Venus Anadyomene) was made famous in a much-admired painting by Apelles, now lost, but described in the Natural History of Pliny the Elder.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.29.3&#8243; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.29.3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_button button_url=&#8221;http:\/\/cyprusconferences.org\/clc6\/index.php\/about-cyprus\/&#8221; button_text=&#8221;Learn More&#8221; button_alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.29.3&#8243; custom_button=&#8221;on&#8221; button_text_size=&#8221;17px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_3,1_3,1_3&#8243; disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.29.3&#8243; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.29.3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/cyprusconferences.org\/clc6\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/cyp1.jpg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.29.3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.29.3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/cyprusconferences.org\/clc6\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/cyp6.jpg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.29.3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.29.3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;http:\/\/cyprusconferences.org\/clc6\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/cyp5.jpg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.29.3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row disabled_on=&#8221;on|on|on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;3.29.3&#8243; disabled=&#8221;on&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;3.29.3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;3.29.3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">About Nicosia<\/h2>\n<p>Nicosia is the capital of Cyprus; a status it has enjoyed for 1000 years since the 10th century, though its beginnings date back 5000 years to the Bronze Age.
