The article attempts to explain the origin of some Polish names of non¬ basic colours. Lex-emes that serve as bases for forming the names of colours in Polish have been divided into four semantic categories. The most numerous one consists of the names of colours deriva-tive from the names of certain plants. Second most numerous group of lexemes is based on the names of minerals, metals, stones. The third one refers to the names of animals, birds, fish and reptiles. The last, and least numerous group consists of the names of colours that originate from the names of the staining substances. Among the names of the colours presented in the article some examples can be found that do not belong to any of the four groups. The name of the colour can also originate from grocery articles, atmospheric phe-nomena, drinks or proper nouns.

In the article the thirty lexical units were analysed and their meaning was – ’dawn’ in the span of time frame; from 15th to 19th century. The material investigated was gathered from all available lexicographical sources registering the bygone vocabulary to the end of 18th century. Stemming from the etymology, the authoress explored the significance of particular wordforms, which were put in the chart at the end with illustration of quantity and volume change in examined lexical field. It turned out that in old Polish the five phases of dawn were extracted which every singular one had at least seven terms. These units were not the constant appellations of concrete phase of the morning time. They evolved constantly semantically or they were weed out from general Polish. Upon the character of these changes the most potent influence was the shifting in customs-the technological progress or better accessability to the chronometers, which influenced as unnecessary the splitting of the dawn into the little segments. As a consequence the special names evaporated.

In the article there were analyzed etymologically and semantically 37 names of adjectives ‘crafty’ in the Old Polish lexicology. The material was gathered from all available lexicographical sources registering the vocabulary to the end of 19th century.It was evidenced that the formal structures investigated adjectives implied pictures such as: the picture of grasping at something, a picture of efficiency and excellence in particular field, the image of vector of change movement, the picture of phatamorgana, deception of something duplicitous, the figure of something hidden. Moreover the gross of analyzed units found its place in noun-derivation group of actions manifesting – cunningness or created in the ‘noun place’ with figurative sense. The implemented analysis depicted the differences between old Polish and the contemporary Polish language demonstrating itself on the par with lexicology and semantics.

The aim of this article is the linguistic analysis of one of the best preserved texts Sposób wychowania pieska panieńskiego in the chronicle of Władysław Bieniecki’s (king’s butler) wife . The instructions of how to deal with puppies were written by an unknown writer in the first half of the 18th century. The orthography of the text implies that the letters are multifunctional and capital letters overused. The author showed good writing skills, but used some archaic syntactic forms. There are numerous diminutives in the text typical of writers from the eastern parts of the country. The persuasive function can be observed in the use of the verb trzeba and adverb zawsze.

In the article, the author applies Jadwiga Rafałowiczówna’s preserved correspondence to Elżbieta Sieniawska, focusing mainly on the varied lexical items related to diseases. The material gathered is compared with the lexicon of the 16th-century Polish language. Among the analysed terms there are one-word nouns of the Greek and Latin origin, as well as two-word names. What is also characteristic of the letters’ author is the use of euphemisms referring to death. When alluded to in such a manner, death became more tamed and natural a phenomenon.

In the article the fifty lexical units were analysed and attributed to the word family of the noun – cud (miracle). The general scope of the analysis was created by the semasiological method. Stemming from the etymology, upon investigation by which methods the particular wordforms acquired new senses it was characterized by movements and objective, which these modifications served. As it turned out the researched lexical units concentrated around such semantic fields as: WONDER and STRANGENESS. The second category (field) developed not until the 18th century. Earlier the analyzed derivatives implied such words as: ‘beauty’, ‘perfectness’, ‘politeness’, ‘magic’, ‘wizardry’ and ‘fraud’. The life changing events and the developing knowledge caused the eradication of last written material and as it happened nobody correlates the jugglers with the miracle makers.

The article presents the use of a simple genre of advice in a teaching project from the nineteenth century. The publication which is the subject of the analysis is by Julius Jedliński, and refers to the Polish national school called L’École polonaise des Batignolles in  Paris. This document certifies that emigres discussed the value of the Polish language as a determinant of Polish identity. Effective ways of teaching the children of immigrants Polish language and culture were sought. The author of the publication presented the concept of changes in the school curriculum. As a means of persuasion he primarily used advice. The reception of the proposal by Jedliński was not favourable. The analysis of responses reveals transformations in the basic block of communicative intentions of the advice, which is interpreted as an order, complaint, or even a threat. On this basis, the attention is drawn to the importance of the communicative context in the interpretation of advice. As a result of the public nature of an act of speech and the extension of the audience while maintaining the desired recipient, the decisiveness of any advice is increased and a modification of a simple genre takes place.

Authority and function of the head of guild and custom communicative in the light of Cracow’s brewers protocols (from the years 1729-1760) This article presents the concept of authority exploited in historical studies of language. It shows a clash between the authority of the head of a corporation and the language custom of a speech community fixed in guild protocols. The influence of the older guild is reflected in the choice of the writer, in giving orders to write down contents of extreme relevance as well as in the theme of unusual records. The stylistic, linguistic and genre shape of records depend on the writer, who adapts it to the existing patterns of text. The relationship between the writer and the head of a guild sometimes manifests itself in the records of panegyric character. The situation changes when former writers become the head of guild, which will be discussed in the next publication.

The subject of description in this paper is the functioning of the expressions biały kruk in the history of Polish language. The expression has a long tradition of application in Polish language, although its complete metaphorisation took place as late as in the 19th century. The analysis of the functioning of the expression in 20th and 21st century texts convinces us that at present it is subject to numerous formal modifications and is broadening the scope of its meaning.

The analysis was undertaken concerning the ancient names of air ghosts and spirits in this article. The written material gathered from all available lexicographical sources registered the ’lexis’ to the end of 18th century. The author used the old texts and literature for example: Postępek prawa czartowskiego przeciwko narodowi ludzkiemu and Pogrom czartowskie błędy, latawców zdrady i alchemickie zdrady jako rozpłasza. As was evidenced the vintage names of air spirits were structured as a form of three ’pictures’ such as: 1. ‘given to fly’, 2. ‘given to whistle’, 3. ‘the fire in the sky’ the key figure among these creatures was latawiec who was taken as a satan’s helper other demons were treated as an entities who plagued the human kind with bad meteorological aura. Some of them took a revenge on the people for disturbance of their peace and quiet (for instance – południca). Others were the creatures who did a penance. Some characters existed to teach people how to do a husbandry. The author took a notice that there’s no way to reconstruct the full measure of meanings because of the gaps in the written text.

The aim of the article is to show the development of adjectives barwny (colourful), bezbarwny (colourless), kolorowy (high-coloured) in the history of Polish language as well as to conduct the analysis of the changes that has occurred in the meaning of these words throughout the years. The scrutiny shows that the meaning of the first lexeme is stable in Polish language, with literal meaning prevailing. The original meanings of remaining adjectives in question referred to sensual impressions, therefore to occurrence of colour or its lack, with time in parallel to them transited meanings were preserved and these dominate in the contemporary Polish language. Barwny (colourful) today means the same as wyrazisty (sharp), ciekawy (intriguing), interesujący (interesting) and bezbarwny (colourless) is niewidoczny (invisible), mdły (bland), nieciekawy (uninteresting), niewarty uwagi (not noteworthy).

Celem artykułu jest wskazanie możliwości zastosowania nowego „Wyboru tekstów z dziejów języka polskiego”, pod red. M. Cybulskiego (Łódź 2015) w badaniach z zakresu różnych subdyscyplin językoznawstwa historycznego. Po krótkiej prezentacji antologii skupiono się na poszukiwaniu nie zmian językowych, ale przejawów ciągłości wybranych zjawisk w trzech obszarach: systemowo-leksykalnym, stylistyczno-pragmatycznym, świadomości językowej. We wnioskach podkreślono, że wskazanie zespołu stabilnych cech w obrębie każdego z poziomów języka może poszerzyć wiedzę historycznojęzykową, a także przynieść korzyści w zakresie obserwacji i prognozowania losów najnowszej polszczyzny; większość zachodzących w niej procesów ma bowiem długą tradycję.

The aim of the paper is to show possibilities of use of the new edition of "Wybór tekstów z dziejów języka polskiego", edited by Marek Cybulski (Łódź 2015) in the research of subfields of historical linguistics. First, the author briefly presents the anthology and then – rather than searching for language changes – focuses on the expression of continuity of the selected developments in three areas: systemic and lexical, stylistic and pragmatic and that of linguistic awareness. In conclusion, the author stresses that by recognizing a group of stable features on each language level we can expand our knowledge of history of language. We can also facilitate observation and prediction of the development of the current Polish language in which most of the undergoing processes have a long tradition.

In the article, the olden names of daglock from 15th to 19th century timeline were analysed and collected from all available lexicographical sources. The material was ordered based upon the ‘word-form’ structure and the etymology of researched appellations. It turned out that particular units were created in correlation with four primary senses such as: 1. ‘the symptoms of syphilis’, 2. ‘the place of epidemic pandemic’, 3. ‘the carrier with syphilis’, 4. ‘mythological creature causing syphilis’. Among forty two investigated units, currently only two are preserved: kiła and tryper. It can be acknowledged that the main causes of this phenomenon are medicine evolution and inhibition of the epidemic of syphilis as a primary principle of medical intervention. The dominating factor in this sketch is the analysis of contexts in which they were situated. The author examines the names with the meaning ‘syphilis’ in the history of the Polish language. Upon the statement of using this word in the dictionary registering the Old Polish, we can deduce the meaningful value of it in the given time.

Jakub Parkosz, also known as Parkoszowic, is the author of the first proposal of Polish spelling. In order to account for all the phonemes of Polish, some new letters were proposed. As his proposal was not widely accepted, the letters have not become available with the standard fonts, which makes it difficult to quote and discuss the proposal. Fortunately, the letters have recently been added to the Junicode font by its creator, Peter Baker.

The paper concerns the problem of axiology exponents in the Polish academic discourse of the 16th century. The research proved that this kind of exponents refer to different discourse levels, from the topic of the discourse, through the field of science, to metatext. As for language determinants one can distinguish evaluating lexis, modal verbs and style exponents (e.g. comparisons, phraseological constructions, enumera- tions). The analysis shows that the subjective aspect of the texts confirms the initial stage of the Polish academic discourse forming process. Furthermore, the style diversity reflects the discourse state which was then rather practical than theoretical.

Celem artykułu jest potwierdzenie hipotezy o większym, niż dotychczas zakładano, wpływie pracy zecera na kształt graficzno-językowy druków z I połowy XVI wieku. Weryfikacja oparta jest na studium porównawczym zapisów dwóch odpowiadających sobie form dopełniacza liczby pojedynczej leksemu „deszcz”, poświadczonych w bliźniaczych polskich edycjach „Ksiąg o gospodarstwie domowym” Piotra Krescentyna z XVI wieku. W pierwodruku analizowana postać fleksyjna jest efektem błędu zecera, powstałym na skutek «osypania się składu»: w miejsce pierwotnego -u wstawiono -a. W przedruku z 1571 roku poprawiono fragment tekstu zdefektowany w wersji z 1549 roku, pozostawiając jednak postać „deszcza”.
EN
The aim of the article is to verify the hypothesis about the influence of a typesetter’s work (which was greater than it has so far been assumed) on the graphical and linguistic shape of prints from the first half of 16th century. The verification is based on a comparative study of two synonymous singular genitive forms of the lexeme "deszcz" (Eng. rain) acknowledged in twin Polish editions of "Księgi o gospodarstwie domowym" (Eng. Books about the Household) by Piotr Krescentyn from the 16th century. In the first printing edition the analyzed accidental form was a result of the typesetter’s mistake — he made a common “typo” replacing the original suffix -u with the suffix -a. In the reprint edition from 1571 the defective fragment of the text version from 1549 was corrected, but the form "deszcza" instead of "deszczu" remained unchanged.

W artykule analizie poddano zebrane z całej historii języka polskiego jednostki leksykalne należące do rodziny wyrazowej rzeczownika „cacko”. Główny kierunek analiz wyznaczano za pomocą metody semazjologicznej. Wychodząc od etymologii, badano, jakimi drogami poszczególne jednostki nabywały nowych sensów, określano charakter tych przesunięć oraz cel, któremu modyfikacje te służyły. Okazało się, że badane jednostki leksykalne sytuowały się w wielu, na pozór dalekich znaczeniowo kategoriach semantycznych, tj. „zabawa”, „ozdoby i dekoracje”, „dobra przemijające”, „uroda”, „praca”, „pieszczota”, „erotyzm”, „obietnica”. Zmiany, jakie na przestrzeni wieków zaszły w ich treściach, dokonywały się bardzo szybko, najczęściej pod wpływem analogii względem dominujących cech desygnatu lub na skutek personifikacji. Ich skutkiem był rozpad semantycznej jedności analizowanej rodziny leksykalnej oraz leksykalizacja wielu jej elementów.
EN
In the article lexical units collected from historical sources of Polish language attributed to the word-family of the noun “cacko” (‘kickshaw’) were investigated. The key element of analysis was determined by the sema-siological (semantic) method. Starting with etymology it was studied in which ways the particular units acquired new senses, also the character and the function of those shifts as well as the goal of those modifications were ascertained. The above-mentioned lexical units were found to be present in a few semantic categories, seemingly far in the meaning, for example: “play”, “trinkets and decoration”, “passing goods”, “good looks”, “work”, “caress”, “eroticism”, “promise”. The changes that occurred over the years in their core meanings were very fast, most often under the influence of the analogy with the dominating features of the desig¬nation or personification. As a consequence of those alterations the decay of semantic unity of the analyzed lexical family followed as well as lexicalization of its many elements.
