Ewolucja form wypowiedzi dokumentujących obrady parlamentu w Polsce
The evolution of forms of statements documenting parliamentary proceedings in Poland

Summary/Abstract: The subject of the article are methods of documenting parliamentary proceedings in Poland from the moment of its establishment to modern times. The aim of the study is to distinguish individual stages of the functioning of genres documenting parliamentary proceedings and to indicate the factors (political and cultural) influencing the changes taking place within genre patterns and thus enabling the distinction of these stages. The text falls within the scope of linguistic genology from a diachronic perspective. In the first stage of the functioning of the parliament in Poland, private, handwritten diaries of proceedings were prepared, but only over time this task was entrusted to employees of the royal chancellery, and from the second half of the 18th century, diaries were printed. Another form of documenting the proceedings are stenographic reports and parliamentary minutes, which began to be edited in the second half of the 19th century. Currently, in addition to these two forms, “Kronika Sejmowa” and “Kronika Senatu” are also published. The proceedings are also recorded in the form of audio and audiovisual files.
