Zwyczaje żywieniowe i upodobania kulinarne w rodzinie Pawlikowskich (na podstawie korespondencji prywatnej)

The subject of the analysis carried out in the spirit of cultural linguistics are private letters of the Pawlikowski family, particularly the correspondence between the married couple Helena and Mieczysław. The author concentrates on fragments which allow to reconstruct the culinary habits and preferences of the letter writers. Juxtaposition of the Polish and foreign lexical items as well as structures of the sentences on the culinary topics included in the letters shows a syncretism of tastes and cultural norms of the representatives of the aristocracy from the Małopolska region in the second half of the 19th century.
