Rhetoric and linguistics have, to some extent, separate histories, traditions and research ranges. However, it is worthwhile to mention some reasons for which it is possible to perceive these disciplines as interdependent due to the doubtless relationship between them. And it is not only for the relationship, naturally existing between rhetoric – the queen of sciences and arts, as stated by Cicerone, and linguistics – a discipline being a theoretically and methodologically independent area, which was formed only in the 19th century. Linguistics appears as a peculiar recipient of solutions in terminological-methodological solutions, while rhetoric is not the only area from which the transfer was possible. It was some exact sciences (chemistry, logic, mathematics etc.) that played a significant role in this case. Today there is also noticed a tendency of rhetoric to open to other areas, including what linguistics can offer. It is a process which allows for the hope to create new research possibilities in both branches.

The Charter of the Germans Expelled from Their Homeland signed on 5 August 1950 was commemorated by the Bundestag on 10 February 2011, just over 60 years after its emergence. With the Christian Democrat-Liberal coalition voting in favour, on the anniversary of the signing of the document the Bundestag adopted a resolution suggesting that 5 August should be proclaimed day of remembrance of the victims of expulsions. This decision as well as the Charter itself were and are criticised in Germany and in Poland for their one-sided and aggressive presentation of the consequences of territorial changes in the aftermath of the Second World War. The Charter is of fundamental importance to the image of the Federation. Its provisions form the basis of the organisation’s historical policy as well as its contribution to Germany’s political life today. An interpretation of the persuasion and image-building strategy of the Federation, pursued also on its website, reveals a consistent approach to actions taken and argumentative means employed.

This article analyzes a German propaganda brochure, entitled “Massacre in the Katyn Forest. Fact-based Report,” edited in 1943 by the Central Nationalist-Socialist Publishing House of the German Workers Party.” The aim of the analysis is to determine whether the brochure follows propaganda guidelines defined by the Ministry of National Enlightenment and Reich Propaganda (PROMI), with particular attention paid to the manner of presentation and use of the discovery of mass graves in the Katyn Forest where Polish officers and Soviet prisoners, imprisoned in the Starobielsk camp, were murdered and buried by the People’s Commissariat for Internal Affairs (NKWD). The analysis is set in a historical context. It focuses on the themes and language of the brochure. It finds that the brochure shows all the qualities of a propaganda text typical of PROMI. The analyzed parts of the brochure were translated into Polish.

W niniejszym artykule przebadano niemieckojęzyczną broszurę propagandową, wydaną w roku 1943 przez Centralne Wydawnictwo Narodowo-Socjalistycznej Niemieckiej Partii Robotniczej. Broszura nosi tytuł: Masowy mord w lesie katyńskim. Sprawozdanie oparte na faktach. Celem analizy jest stwierdzenie, czy i w jaki sposób wspomniana broszura realizuje wytyczne propagandowe, wyznaczone przez Ministerstwo Oświecenia Narodowego i Propagandy Rzeszy (PROMI) także w odniesieniu do sposobu przedstawiania i propagandowego wykorzystania faktu znalezienia w Lesie Katyńskim masowych grobów, w których zostali pochowani zamordowani przez NKWD polscy oficerowie, jeńcy sowieccy, więzieni w obozie w Starobielsku. Zagadnienie przebadano na tle istotnych dla analizy wydarzeń historycznych. Analizie materiałowej, retorycznej i językoznawczej poddano wybrane fragmenty tekstu broszury, które zawierają środki propagandowo-perswazyjne. Stwierdzono, iż badany tekst nosi wszelkie cechy tekstu propagandowego, typowego dla okresu, miejsca i celu, jaki miał realizować w ramach działań, prowadzonych przez PROMI. Wybrane do analizy fragmenty zostały przetłumaczone na język polski.

The Association of Exiles, where the significant role for several years has been played by Erika Steinbach, runs a certain image Policy, based on certain facts presented in media. One should mention, first of all “The Chart of Germans Exiled from Homeland”, which is the basis and the fundamental reference point for all documents of the Association and the initiative of the “Centre Against Expulsions”, directed at evidencing fates of the Germans, who had to leave the areas which, according to the resolutions taken in Jalta and Potsdam, were transferred to other states. The present article is an attempt at describing image strategies applied by BdV. The basis is an analysis of the home page of the Association and “The Chart of German Exiles”.
