Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the text is to analyse the creation of Saint Hubert in the articles published from 2015 to 2019 in “Łowiec Polski”[Polish Hunter]—a hunting branch magazine. The patron was mentioned over 50 times in genre-varied texts such as articles, reports, wishes and greetings and notes. The linguistic image of St. Hubert has been created by various lexical and stylistic means. Apart from nominal and verbal forms there appear idioms, parallels, metaphoric expressions, words and phrases typical for hierarchic relations and knightly culture as well as both religious and hunting terminology. The analysis indicates the positive image of the patron of hunters in the excerpted texts. Saint Hubert cares for them, shows his mercy and plays a key roles during hunting when he rewards hunters with good fortune. The patron has a decisive role in hunters’ lives as he is the souvereign for them both during their lifetime and after their death and the hunters serve him faithfully.
