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 article aims to present some diverse concepts of metaphorization of colloquial language and scientific discourse. The starting point of scientific discourse is colloquial thinking – it uses logical argumentation, but also rhetorical figures, typical of everyday reasoning, such as metaphors. The point of reference is the Aristotelian definition of metaphor, which was contemporarily reinterpreted by 1) linguists (among others, Émile Benveniste and cognitive linguists) – the metaphorical sources of notions, the metaphor considered as the starting point of conceptualisation, 2) literary and cultural studies – the application of metaphor in the various cultural messages linked to the mythical thinking and the reasoning and argumentation by analogy – among others, Claude Lévi-Strauss and Edmund Leach, and in particular by 3) philosophers who characterised a metaphorization process as a specific kind of thinking, which conditions the regularity and systematicity of reasoning and imagining (Hans Blumenberg, Paul Ricoeur, Jacques Derrida). The article presents and compares the aforementioned statements, marking the distinctness between metaphor and metonymy, showing the necessity for this distinction in the research concerning: the role of metaphor in colloquial and scientific discourse, the relations between sense and metaphor, the connexions between truth, notion and metaphor. Additionally, I analyse the case of the metaphor of horizon, which is typical of the contemporary phenomenological and hermeneutical discourse.
