| description | This article analyzes the linguistic function of white and black (and derived variants of grey) in Wiesław Myśliwski’s novel Widnokrąg. Analyzing the symbolism of white W. Kopaliński drew attention to its connotations related to the purity of spirit, soul and the joy of existence. The excerpted material proved that in many cases the linguistic creative function of white coincides with its reception. The binary nature of white is emphasized by the statue of a weeping tomb figure, which has been recalled many times, performing a funerary and mourning function. The symbolic value of black, stereotypically ascribed to phenomena perceived as evil and mourning, is represented in Widnokrąg usually in the circle of negatively perceived phenomena and feelings. It is a permanent element of burials, as a traditional part of the funeral procession, performed by mourners› clothes and props. Incidentally, this color elevates the ambivalently created characters by adding distinction to them. |
