The aim of the article is to discuss the processes of continuity and change that take place within the space of an industrial town, connected with the functioning of their cultural areas. The subject of interest is the process of creating qualitatively new cultural areas, changes of perception and valorization of socially degraded and empty cultural areas that are being ascribed new functions and meanings, as well as the development, maintenance and proper development of historical cultural areas of an industrial town, constituting the cultural heritage of this category of centres. The phenomenon of changes and valorization, was analysed on the example of the processes taking places in three towns, constituting the composition of the Upper-Silesian aglomeration, namely Bytom, Ruda Śląska and Zabrze.

The aim of the article is to show the relationship between the Zandek housing estate and the community inhabiting it. Concentrating workers of Donnersamck steelwork, it used to be a perfectly functioning space of inhabitance. Nowadays, the inhabitants form a culturally diversified system. The problems are standard flats and social pathology. Though, it used to be the place of a specific culture. Today Zandek can be considered a cultural area because of the monuments placed here and an active nature of enthusiasts. Tradition, closed in the inhabitance space, helps to look for an identity and meet the needs of living in a safe and healthy environment. It is a factor stimulating the formation of formal societies that have a positive influence on the whole local community.

The article compares three linguistic zoomorphic pictures of the world – Chinese, Japanese and Indian. It deals with zoometaphors, which are inconsistent with the principle of ascending from the abstract to the concrete, but realize the prototypical effect, presenting some characteristics by concrete notions. These metaphors are of great importance in the process of human thinking as they perform the evaluative-expressive and aesthetic functions of language. They express some social types and standards of human behavior, evaluate both extrinsic characteristics and intrinsic features of the person. The more distant the cultural areas are, the more differences are present in linguistic zoomorphic pictures of the world.
