================================================================  

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 Colleagues, 

Can somebody recommend some article or book on the language of written
interviews (biographical or literary interviews in magazines, newspapers,
etc.)?
There seems to be a wealth of material on political interviews and on TV
interviews, but I haven't been able to find anything specific on the
linguistic features of written interviews.

Thank you for your help. 

Kind regards,

Gloria Cappelli
