Linguistic creation of crafts and craftsmen in Wiesław Myśliwski’s novel Ostatnie rozdanie

Summary/Abstract: The article attempts to analyse and evaluate the linguistic creation of the craftsmen world with special consideration to the craft terms and vocabulary present in Wiesław Myśliwski’s novel Ostatnie rozdanie. In order to create the world of crafts, the author uses crafts general vocabulary as well as terminology characteristic of sewing, shoemaking and carpentry.The analysis of the examined vocabulary points to the richness and functionality of the terminology used, which served the writer in recreating with utmost precision the world of crafts (customs, tools they used, materials and craft products).By using craft terminology W. Myśliwski pictures the process of disappearance of traditional crafts in the times of Polish People’s Republic and simultaneously points out the reasons which led to the rebirth of craft community today.
