We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

Dear Linguists,

I am writing to you to ask you for some information.

I am writing my M.A. thesis here in Poland at Jagiellonian University
- English philology.  I am facing awful problems because I cannot find
any books that I could use for my M.A. project. It's partially
connected with the topic that my tutor has given me. The topic is
"Idioms with First Names". I kept searchin libraries in Warsaw,
Cracow, Gdansk, Kalisz, Poznan and I found only one book about the
theory of Idioms.  But that is not enough.  I will be very grateful if
you could give me some information where to write for help or who
could help me.  I count on your help.  I am looking forward to hearing
from you soon.

Marek Matura
