Memory of the past in the activities of national and ethnic minorities of the Silesian Voivodeship (selected examples)

Organizations of national and ethnic minorities have been subjected to research analysis. They are discussed in many contexts, yet, there is a lack of studies devoted to memory-forming aspects. The aim of the research was to show the activity of minority communities in the Silesian Voivodeship. Their activities aimed at consolidating the memory of generations were presented, showing initiatives of a material and spiritual nature.

The article is devoted to lingua-cognitive models of metonymy in English and Azerbaijani literary texts. First, metonymy and metonymic models were reported. Speaking about metonymic models, we turned to the concepts of J. Lakov, R. Jacobson, J. Raden, Z. Kovaks, E. Paducheva, etc., and analyses were carried out on their basis. The works of such prominent writers as T. Dreiser, F. Karimzadeh, V. Scott, and V. Somerset were used as factual material. From the conducted typological studies, it is concluded that metonymic models in English and Azerbaijani are similar and universal. The scientific results of linguistic research have played an important role in studying this problem in a psychological, philosophical and social context. It turned out that the ancient variants of meaning transfers arose based on abstraction and generalisation of meaning that arose in the minds of primitive people. Their formation as a model of consciousness occurred in developing people’s life experiences from simple to complex. The appearance of elements of logical cognition in primitive people was an incentive for the formation of more advanced models of consciousness.
