The Castellan of Poznań, Krzysztof Grzymułtowski’s speech delivered in the Seym in 1665 is an example of inner differentiation in a statement’s style. Besides the “high” style, rich in the applications of rhetorical tools, there are some parts in the “average” style and look almost like a colloquial language. Parliamentary speeches of the second half of 17th century are the excellent base for studies of then forming “average-official” style of statement.
