Le style c'est l'homme : wybory stylowe w dialogu

Abstract

The author of the present article, using data derived from an interview (which she treats as a particular type of a conversation), proposes the application of a choreographic metaphor as a tool facilitating the study of stylistic properties of a conversation. She asuumes that the text created (or co-created) by at least two persons manifests certain idiolectal features characteristics for each of the participants of the conversation. Thus, from the point of view of interactivity, it is crucial to concentrate upon the mutual influence that the individual styles of interlocutors participating in the conversation exert upon one another.
