Kreatywność językowa i jej wybrane mechanizmy w kontekście wtórnej oralności
Selected Mechanisms of Linguistic Creativity in the Context of Secondary Orality

Summary/Abstract: The paper touches upon the issue of language and technology interaction. The author considers various aspects of the understanding of creativity in relation to language. Primarily, her purpose is to answer the question about the definition of linguistic creativity and the criteria that can be taken into account to determine the essence and scope of a particular phenomenon. Secondly, her goal is to analyze, in terms of creativity, selected stylistic devices identified within these web publishing tools whose immanent trait is immersion in both orality and writing. Adopting an egalitarian approach to understanding creative output, the author demonstrates that, when referred to linguistic phenomena, creativity is a gradable trait. Moreover, to a certain extent, it results from technological progress, which is typical of the evolution of language.
