The Author of the essay asks the following question: do parents have licentia rhetorica for talking about their experience? In her analysis she primarily focuses on an Internet magazine „Bachor. Bezradnik dla nieudacznych rodziców („Brat. Helpless-guide for looser–parents”) which represents a very particular way of talking about the child, a way which varies from parents’ standard linguistic behaviour. The Author traces the fragments which include intentionally created non–literality and subsequently proceeds to reconstruct the types of reception she observed. At the same time, the Author ponders on the reasons why some recipients resist the possibility of nonliteral reading or why they object to it – and, as a result, read messages literally. The considerations are presented in a broader perspective of the reflection upon the media motivated social and cultural transformations of rhetorical standards of talking about the child.

The campus novel, invariably a satire on the university community, typically touches on the subjects of sex, money, power, adultery, or professional rivalry. Tom Sharpe's novels cover similar topics. They are, however, crammed with vulgarity, chauvinism and black humour. The purpose of the article is to analyse Tom Sharpe’s satirical style considering the author's apparent refusal to accept the boundaries of taste and decency. The article will focus on three novels, Porterhouse Blue, Wilt and The Wilt Alternative, which ridicule academics but also contemporary society at large. Sharpe introduces a whole parade of unusual characters, arranges for them a series of preposterous situations and spices his plots with grotesque and sometimes repellent episodes.
