Tomasz Szumski (1778–1840) was a polyglot, teacher, bookseller, author of school textbooks, associated with Greater Poland. His grammar book, released in 1809, is the first Polish-language grammar book of the Polish language published in the 19th century where the grammatical description of Polish is made independent of the description of Latin. It is at the same time the first known 19th-century grammar of Polish where the author dared to polemicise with Onufry Kopczyński’s ideas contained in the Polish–Latin Grammatyka dla szkół narodowych (Grammar for national schools).

The aim of this paper is to present Tomasz Szumski’s prescriptive views. Dokładna nauka języka i stylu polskiego (Learning the Polish language and style thoroughly) is not a highly popular work, yet one deserving attention as it combines a grammatical description of the Polish language with the rules governing its use, including a lecture on communication behaviours. It is a systematic and a clearly prescriptive lecture of good Polish, where the author distinguishes three levels of command of the language. It includes not only a description of grammatical rules but also guidance regarding proper pronunciation, text construction and delivery. The rules formulated by T. Szumski are expressly oriented towards addressees with the aim to make them feel comfortable; they are also conditions of an effective utterance/statement. The study is embedded in the European grammatical and rhetorical tradition. Historical, national, literary, and aesthetic criteria, although unnamed directly, are clear in the author’s thinking about the language.
