Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the linguistic-discursive procedures used by interlocutors in order to introduce and to take back the discursive topics in a television interview. In the attempt to clarify facts or bring insightful information, several procedures were used by the interviewer in order to get a better development of the proposed topics by the interviewee In turn, the interviewee interacted with the interviewer, sometimes accepting and developing the proposed topics, sometimes refusing some that could possibly put a positive self-image in vulnerability. Considered the topic, the conductive element of the event (since the dialogue means the topics and it is about the topics that are also chosen by the dialogue), the main objective was therefore to get evidence the collaborative contribution among the participants in shaping the topic board in view of the elements that are configured to delineate the social role that incorporate the interactants in the construction and consolidation of their public self-image.
