Summary/Abstract: The article The Linguistic Picture of Politeness in Dobšinský's legends and Erben's tales brings up the question how the meanings of the politeness concept and its context usages contribute to the broader Slovak and Czech linguistic picture of the world. To be able to answer this question we observed and interpreted various definitions of the concept we found in Slovak and Czech dictionaries and ethical manuals. With this theoretical base we have continued our observations of the concept within the literary field of legends and tales by Slovak romantic author Pavol Dobšinský and Czech romantic author Karel Jaromír Erben.
