The article analyses various archaeologically perceptible methods of withdrawing goods from circulation. This phenomenon is known as potlatch. Its social and economic context was considered on the basis of various prehistoric cultures in Central Europe. It is pointed out that this is a phenomenon typical of a peripheral economy and a hierarchical social structure.

So, what cognomen will we think up for him?” Medieval rulers in the snares of the chronicler’s power: The official historian of the Duchy of Burgundy Georges Chastelain (1415–1475) included in his work also a noteworthy evocation of a crisis in the womb of the ruling family from January 1457. The solitary wandering of the duke in the woods as a result of an argument with his heir, he took as a pilgrimage for adventure and realization. In that, he utilized the approaches and motifs of medieval fictional literature. He used the fictional methods of “interweaving” also in treating the neighbouring episodes on the rebellious brewmaster and fraudulent servant, who threatened the order and calm of the Burgundian territory. Chastelain’s passages on the relation of the French and Flemish languages also serve to reinforce the hierarchical order. The author devoted great attention to the selection of cognomens for contemporary ruler, particularly King of France Charles VII and Duke Philip. They became a chance for him to assert his own influence on the events as the creative historian and man of letters literature, who has the power to form the image of his lords in the future.

Hierarchia prestiżu zaliczana jest do podstawowych wymiarów nierówności społecznych. Podlega on oczywiście ewolucji, podobnie jak stratyfikacja klasowa, stosunki władzy i inne wymiary stratyfikacji społecznej. Na podstawie refleksji, i odwołując się częściowo do badań, próbuję odpowiedzieć na pytanie, jak wygląda to w Polsce. Chodzi głównie o rozstrzygnięcie kwestii, czy stratyfikująca rola prestiżu zwiększa się, czy może zanika.

The hierarchy of prestige is considered one of the basic dimensions of social inequalities. It has been evolving throughout the centuries, as have class stratification, power relations and other dimensions of social hierarchy. Based on my own reflections and referring in part to empirical research, I make an attempt to answer the question of how the issue of prestige appears in Poland. The goal is to consider whether the role of prestige in social stratification is increasing or rather declining.
