This aim of this article was to describe the representations of the devil in German phraseology based on an analysis of representative phraseological units. Special emphasis was placed on the axiological potential of these depictions, which is why the descriptive method relied on the conceptual apparatus of axiological linguistics. The study demonstrated that in semantic presuppositions, the main axiological criterion for formulating value judgements about the devil is associated with the concept of moral evil. The analysis also revealed that some of the analyzed phraseological units carry information about esthetic and pragmatic criteria for evaluating the devil. In language, the devil is portrayed metaphorically as a creature that elicits disgust and disapproval. The devil is also depicted as a hybrid being with both animal and human characteristics, and as a deceitful and cunning creature that leads man to evil. The devil exercises authority through its duplicitous influence on human beings. However, an analysis of deeply-seated beliefs that are epitomized by the German language indicates that devil’s power is not absolute because in language users’ perception, it can be broken by supreme forces that are imbued with a sense of holiness. It was found that phraseological units containing the lexeme devil assign negative value to undesirable human attitudes, life situations and states. The axiolinguistic analysis also revealed that these phraseological units can perform expressive and persuasive functions in a given speech situation.

Autorka przedstawia językowo-kulturowy obraz relacji aksjologicznych konceptualizowany na przykładzie dwóch pojęć: wolności i niepodległości, ściśle ze sobą zespolonych semantycznie i interpretacyjnie, z wyraźnie wyakcentowanym aspektem etycznym, politycznym i ideologicznym. Bazę materiałową stanowią wypowiedzi kilkudziesięciu osób – najstarszych mieszkańców wsi regionu lubelskiego. Jest to zatem obraz ludowego widzenia świata, z wyraźnie zaakcentowanym patriotyzmem i odpowiedzialnością za ojczyznę. Wolność i niepodległość, ujmowane jako sacrum, wpisują się w pojęcie służby, ofiary, obowiązku i historycznej powinności. Budowany od pokoleń obraz aksjologiczny obu pojęć opiera się na bagażu przeżyć osobistych jednostki i historycznych doświadczeń narodu.

The author presents a linguistic and cultural picture of axiological messages conceptualised on the basis of the notions of freedom and independence. The two are closely connected at a semantic and interpretational level and have a clearly marked ethical, political and ideological dimension. The data have been gathered from the interviews with several people who are the oldest country dwellers from the Lublin region. As a result, the author obtains the folk perception of the world, where patriotism and responsibility for the country are much emphasised. Freedom and independence are treated as sacred and entail the notions of service, sacrifice, duty and historical responsibility. The axiological picture of freedom and independence is based upon one’s personal experience and national history.
