Autor pokazuje możliwość porządkowania materiałów terenowych do Białoruskiego Atlasu Etnolingwistycznego według minimalnych jednostek (kategorii pojęciowych), odpowiadających „semom etnolingwistycznym”. W artykule w ten sposób przeanalizowano obrzędy i rytuały dotyczące wywoływania deszczu. Zgromadzony z 400 miejscowości materiał, został ułożony zgodnie z propozycją Nikity Iljicza Tołstoja według stosowanych kodów, jak: akcjonalny (poświęcanie studni, składanie ofiar, oczyszczanie, wybieranie wody), przedmiotowy (sól, piasek, łopata od chleba, serweta), związany z subiektem akcji (dzieci, dziewczynki, wdowy), lokatywny (granica swojego i cudzego pola, rzeka, jezioro, bagno), roślinny (zboże, proso, len), temporalny (w ciągu doby, cały dzień, noc), zwierzęcy (kret, baran, sowa, kogut, wąż, żaba), werbalny (zaklęcia, formuły słowne, teksty pieśniowe itp.).

An analysis is offered of ceremonies and rituals to do with invoking the rain. The material comes from 400 sites and has been arranged, following N. I. Tolstoi's proposal, according to the following codes: action-related (blessing the well, offering sacrifices, purifying and drawing water), object-related (salt, sand, bread spade, table cloth), subject-related (children, girls, widows), locative (the boundary of one's own and of the other's field, river, lake), related to plants (corn, millet, flax), temporal (the twenty-four-hour period, day, night), related to animals (mole, ram, owl, cock, snake, frog), and verbal (magic spells, verbal formulae, song lyrics, etc.).

Literary scholars analyzing war theme of old polish split-sleeve overcoat and frock coat, notice the phenomenon of rebirth of polish national gown in the second half of XVIIIth century. This renaissance is said to be a triumph of a polish attire. This popularity was to be a proof of an avertion of “cropped” western models. The author using the records of posthumous inventories on the terrain of the Great Poland in the years 1776–1795, Sejm’s Lauda, sources like journals or iconographic type, tries to answer the question about the character of this renaissance. Have it brought a real rebirth of the “attire”? What role played in it implementation of voivoidship uniforms? Sources unused before at studying the evolution of national attire reveal a wide range of civil and cultural processes that had an impact on its development. Author tells about cultural codes connected with male clothes of western type (frock coat, cullotte, wig, slippers and cane) and attire of national type (polish split-sleeve overcoat, high-collared men’s folk jacket, saffian shoes, belt, sabre and mustache). Western fashion feminized men, while the traditional national model incarnated warrior type — patriot. In the Four Years’ Sejm hour knowingly have been used various types of attire in politics to manifest ones opinion. Meanwhile there was a constant race among the richest of noblemen to manifest wealth and to degrade opponents. This fight had its analogue in the lower social ranks, that did not want to stay behind the fashion innovations, usually living beyond one’s means. Omnipresent “excess” in fashion after the first partition started to be connected in slow loss of polishness. Postulates of returning to national attire were seen as one of remedies of defending the country. Top-down standardization was to unify information sent by the gown and bring back security. King Stanisław August Poniatowski introduced first anty-excess act in 1776. Soon it became clear that it left wide possibility to avoid its resolutions on an everyday basis. Not until 1780 was thoroughly stated which type of cut, fabrics, colors and mercery decorations is acceptable for particular voivodeships. Analysis of sejm’s lauda showed the progress of implementation of acts resolutions — there were voivodeship’s uniforms introduced in western and national type. Poshumous inventories showed that, more popular were polish type uniforms. Analysis of iconography and inventories of individual senators allow to see the difference between the attire worn on daily basis – western type, while attending the sejm debates or social balls — national type of uniform. The author proves costumisation of polish national attire, which in consequence of statutory use of voivodeship uniforms achieved the rank of “costume” — parade clothes. Aware imputation to this type of clothes patriotic contents made impossible to polish dress to function as daily clothes. Paradoxically “cropped” frock coats became that.

The trend of cultural sociology usually associated with the name of Jeffrey Alexander is highly influential in modern theoretical sociology. During two last decades, he is actively elaborating this 'brand' on theoretical and organizational levels of American sociology. So the aim of the article is to clarify theoretical, methodological and organizational achievements of Alexander's cultural sociology. The authors analyze theoretical evolution of Alexander's thought on the way to fulfillment of the cultural sociology project, as well as inquire into the main perspectives of this approach. They underline the idea of cultural sociology as aimed at study of collective (inter-subjective) meanings that are based on the common moral principles, emotions and values and have a dominant impact on individuals and groups. Besides this task, they are intended to clarify an internal cultural architecture of social meaning by means of analysis of cultural codes, narratives and symbolic actions. The basic principles embodied in the 'strong program' of the cultural sociology – as one opposed to the 'weak program' of traditional sociology - are analyzed in the article. It is also noted that the typical element (focus) of this trend in modern sociology is an active role of social analysts in description (understanding) of the social process, as well as theoretical interpretation of social life.
