O znaczeniu grochowin i grochowego wieńca w polskiej tradycji
On the Significance of Pea Straw and the Pea Straw Wreath in Polish Folk Tradition

Summary/Abstract: A collection of ethno-linguistic texts reconstructing the linguistic-cultural image of the world present in Polish folk culture. The studies, prepared as part of work on Słownik stereotypów i symboli ludowych edited by Professor Bartmiński, were based on three types of data: linguistic (records of dialect texts by dialecticians, dictionaries, dialect atlases), folkloristic (oral folklore: riddles, proverbs, songs, spells, folk prose, contemporary peasant poetry), and ethnographic (recorded beliefs and practices). The authors discussed the following entries: “oats”, “pea straw”, ”lightening” and “Tatar”.
