The Role of the Oldest Polish Versions of the Bible in Shaping the Traditions of Proper-name Translation

The author tries to mark the beginnings of the Polish tradition of translating the New Testament’s geographical names. His research is based on the oldest Polish versions of the New Testament that, until now, have scarcely been dealt with in linguistics: the Szarffenberg’s New Testament from 1556 and parts of the medieval translations. The comparison of these oldest texts with those from the 16th and 20th century, both Catholic ones based on the Latin Vulgate and Protestant ones based on the Greek text, shows that the tradition of translating proper names remained - as far as the linguistic shape of toponyms was concerned - under the considerable influence of translations from the Vulgate. However, that tradition was often modified by the pragmatics of translation.
