Summary/Abstract: This paper depicts the history of the only monthly in Poland that presents the issues of language – „Poradnik Językowy” („The Linguistic Guide”). It is the oldest academic journal of this type in Poland. The paper describes the period following the Second World War – years 1948–2015. The entire discussed period is divided into terms in which the journal was managed by successive editors-in-chief: Witold Doroszewski (1948–1976), Mieczysław Szymczak (1976–1985), Danuta Buttler (1986–1991), Halina Satkiewicz (1991–2008) and Stanisław Dubisz (2008–2015). Organisational framework of the journal’s operation (editors, editorial meetings and editorial boards) and its contents are discussed for each of the periods. The paper demonstrates the transformation process of „Poradnik Językowy” from a journal where contents popularising the knowledge of the Polish language were dominant into one with academic contents prevailing. Yet primarily, the paper presents the infl uence of the individual editors of „Poradnik Językowy” on its shape and nature.
