Język jako wartość w „Tygodniku Ilustrowanym” w latach 1918–1928
Abstract
Language as a value in ”Tygodnik Ilustrowany” in the years 1918–28 In the years 1918–28, “Tygodnik Ilustrowany” offered its readers a new outlook on the issues of language and linguistics. Resigning from treating Polish as an argument in the struggle for national values, in the years 1920–25, the journal tried to present language as a value in its own right. In this period, it published the works of specialists such as Kryński and Lange. After a period of interest in the specificity of language, its secrets and mechanisms, one can observe a return to the instrumental treatment of Polish. Fixed in the journal’s tradition, the vision of language as subordinate to the fulfillment of specific goals reappears in the years 1926–28.
