Nazwy osobowe jako wyznacznik idiolektu pisarza – na przykładzie dzieł Erazma Glicznera (1535–1603)
Proper names as markers of the writer’s idiolect in the works of Erazm Gliczner (1535–1603)

Summary/Abstract: The article raises the question of a possible connection between the use of proper names in the works of the sixteenth-century Protestant writer Erazm Gliczner and his idiolect. In my research, I have examined the material excerpted directly from four, generically diverse old prints: Książki o wychowaniu dzieci (Books on Children Upbringing, 1558), Odpór na odpowiedź kwestyj (A Response to Selected Issues, 1579), Kronika żywota, nauki i spraw Pana Jezusa (The Chronicle of Life, Teachings, and Affairs of Lord Jesus, 1579), and Appellatia, którą się popiera i znowu wywodzi (An Appeal Con- firmed and Resubmitted, 1598). All personal names present in the mentioned publications have been reviewed, while the detailed analysis carried out in the article concerns several selected anthroponyms, including the names Eliasz, Judasz, Filip, Józef, Grzegorz and Magdalena. The analysis presented in the article covers proper names used in at least two of these texts. In particular, I focus on the adaptation of foreign anthroponyms over the period of forty years between Gliczner’s first and last publication, viewed against the background of the tendencies that could be observed in the Polish language in the latter half of the sixteenth century. I address such aspects of the above-mentioned problem as the context in which a proper name was used and its referent. The analysis of proper names excerpted from Gliczner’s works has shown a weak dependence of the author’s idiolect on the onomasticon contained in his publications.
