Maximal and effective territories’ involvement in economic activities is one of the main tasks for sustainable development. The areas and peculiarities of brownfields in Latvia make it possible to develop the cultivation of berries (cloudberry, cowberry), which is rarely used in food industry in Latvia and the cultivation of rapidly growing willows to produce bioenergy. The objective of the article is to offer solutions for the effective use of brownfields; it offers the prospect to grow rarely used berries such as cloudberries and cowberries, as well as willows for bioenergy. Statistical analysis method, scientific analysis, professional literature as well as a survey of the population are used in the study. The authors introduce society to the peculiarities of the mentioned cultures and the opportunities and obstacles to their cultivation and summarize other countries experience. Among the identified problems, the authors indicate lack of knowledge for producers and consumers of how to grow and use cowberries and cloudberries, as well the how to cultivate and process energy willows. Analysis shows that growing cloudberries (and stone-berries), cowberries, energy willows is promising and can be introduced on both brownfields and other land areas. But the problem is that the market is poorly researched and producers and consumers are poorly acquainted with these berry crops; in the field of growing energy willows, there is experience, in turn, the demand in the market testifies the further development of energy willows cultivation.

This article attempts to analyze ethnographically the species of trees, whose names have not been mentioned in the collection of folksongs originating in Warmia and Mazury edited by Marian Sobieski. From the ethnographical point of view and with respect to the natural environment, they seem to be the most valuable plants in the region. The research falls within the framework of studies called “absence figure” that are currently popular and has been conducted on the premises of the theory of bioregionalism. Bioregionalism assumes a particular relationship between the world of plants and humans, their tradition, habits and culture. Accordingly, some species of trees, such as spruce, pine, juniper, birch-tree, and willow have been examined and analyzed. The description of each includes examples of main dialect variations of plant names, information about the place occupied by each species in the natural habitat of Warmia and Mazury and the role it played in the material heritage of local inhabitants. The conducted research allowed the author to determine the reason for the absence of key tree species. The cause (in everyday life and the sacrum sphere as well) might have been the specificity of the discussed anthology, the frugality of artistic devices in the songs or changes in the structure of tree stands.

In Willows Szymon Szymonowic used a popular in Polish Renaissance and Baroque literature theme of the metamorphosis of the body, making a reference to Ovid’s Metamorphoses and other literary sources. In his bucolic tale he connected metamorphic theme with meta-poetic reflection on fame and immortality of the poet. The key motif of nymphs losing their purity and the punishment of turning them into willows is accompanied by a warning against losing the spirit of poetry, which may result from writing for unworthy crowds. Willows is also an attempt to demonstrate the mythical provenance of Polish bucolic tales. The author included in the conventional world of pastoral scenery his very own, local space by the river of Pur and by doing so he introduced the motif of Polish folk culture into European literary tradition. The relation between the metamorphic motifs and the essence of the bucolic tale genre is therefore disclosed.

Artykuł jest próbą opisu konotacji kulturowych we frazeologizmach zawierających komponent ‘wierzba’, ‘wierzbowy’. Analiza obejmuje zarówno dane językowe (frazeologizmy, przysłowia, bajki, itp.), jak też zapisy wierzeń i praktyk. W kulturze słowiańskiej symbolika wierzby jest bardzo zróżnicowana. Z jednej strony wiąże się ona z płodnością, szybkim wzrostem, żywotnością, giętkością, z drugiej zaś – z bezpłodnością, głuchotą, milczeniem i śmiercią. W językach wschodniosłowiańskich i polskim frazeologizmy ze słowem wierzba wyrażają ‘brak’, ‘ciemną siłę’, ‘pustkę’. Zwyczaje i praktyki chrześcijańskie kojarzą wierzbę z życiem, radością i niedzielą. We frazeologizmach białoruskich, ukraińskich i polskich często obok komponentu ‘wierzba’ występuje komponent ‘grusza’ (grusza podobnie jak wierzba kojarzona jest z nieczystą siłą). We frazeologizmach polskich i ukraińskich występują jeszcze inne komponenty: ‘diabeł/czort’ oraz ‘suchy’. Relacja ekwiwalencji łączy też wierzbę i palmę: wschodniosłowiańskiej nazwie Verbnoe voskresenè odpowiada polska nazwa Niedziela Palmowa.

The article attempts to describe cultural connotations of phrases with the words wierzba or wierzbowy (‘willow’ as a noun or adjective, ‘willowy’, 'willowish’, ‘willow-like’). The analysis comprises linguistic data, such as phrases, proverbs, fairy tales, as well as descriptions of beliefs and practices. In Slavonic culture the symbolism of ‘willow’ is diversified. On the one hand it is associated with fertility, quick growth, liveliness and physical flexibility, but on the other with infertility, deafness, silence and death. In East Slavonic languages and in Polish, phrases with the word meaning ‘willow’ express lack, a black force or emptiness. In Christian customs and practices, however, the word connot.es life, joy and Sunday. In Byelorussian, Ukrainian and Polish phrasal expressions, beside the component, ‘willow’, the component ‘pear tree’ is also frequent, both being associated with an evil force. Additionally, Polish and Ukrainian concepts contain the components ‘devil’ and ‘dry’. Furthermore, there is equivalence between ‘willow’ and ‘palm tree’: the East Slavonic Verbnoe Voskresnye (lit. ‘willow Sunday’) is paralleled by the Polish Niedziela Palmowa (Palm Sunday).
