Аннотация

The paper discusses a secondary, figurative meaning of the proper name Misiewicz
that has evolved in the current political discourse in Poland. The data under examination
have been retrieved during the years 2016-2017 from paper and electronic editions
of Polish newspapers and magazines, including online commentaries and opinions
of their readers. It is claimed that best documented and most frequent uses of the name
Misiewicz/e [SG./PL.] exhibit a paragonic sense. Barcelona’s [2003, 2004] model was
adopted in the explanation of the metonymic mappings underlying them.
