The paper presents annex no. 1 to the Historical background of the Russian literatureby Nikolay Gretsch, translated and edited by Samuel Bogumił Linde (Warszawa, 1823). The annex, entitled About the story “The Igor’s Campaign” by Karamzin, is a translation of the excerpt from the History of the Russian state (chap. 7, vol. III), which was published in another work of Gretsch, the Scientific book of the Russian literature (vol. 1–4, Saint-Petersburg, 1819–1822). It concerns the masterpiece of the Old-Russian literature The Tale of Igor’s Campaign. The paper presents the place of Karamzin’s work in the structure of the Polish edition of the “Historical background of the Russian literature”. An interpretive context is Linde’s correspondence with Vasily Anasta-syevitch.

This text focuses on the issue of war in Afghanistan from 1979–1989 and its realities. The lexicon associated with the everyday life of Afghanistan civilians and Soviet soldiers was analysed. The observations indicate that additional information appears more often in the translated text, which makes it much more transparent for the final recipient. This fact was confirmed by the statistical data, only one footnote can be found in the Polish text and 173 in the Russian text.

This article brings the idea on the subject of a mythopoetic approach to the characters from Slavic mythology in translations of poems by Sergey Gorodetsky into Polish. This article focuses on the following works: Полюбовники (1906) – Miłośnicy (1971) and Предки (without a date) – Przodkowie (1971). The intent is to analyse the translations and to track to what extent the trans-lator reflected the specificity of the characters from lower mythology (Russian леший, черт) pre-sented in the original, and how much their image has changed in the translation. The analysis will also focus on the “inner form of the word” (Potiebnia) to show how specific translational actions influence the perception of the lyrical situation shown in the poems. Finally, the extent to which equilinearity and equirythmicality have been preserved in the above-mentioned examples will be examined (Kwiatkowski).
