Abstract

Read online

The article contains analyses of the several press publications that appeared in Polish tabloids after Anna Przybylska’s death in 2014. The analysed material proves that a death of a celebrity holds an importance for media mainly because of her/his previous presence in media and not because of the consolation function of a text itself. Such texts are deeply rooted in a tradition of funeral literature, yet they serve completely different purpose.
