Summary/Abstract: The main aim of this article (which topic is connected with „religious language” and „language of religious”) consists in making a title attempt at deconstruction. The writer’s intention, based largely on reinterpretation on the content, is to „disassemble” current research on „religious language”. Theolinguistics is, to put in simply, a branch of science stemming from two disciplines: linguistics and theology and it lies in the centre of reflection. The author re-examines the proposal for developing theolinguistics – with religious language in the widest sense of the word – as a part of linguistics research. A different perspective on the object of cognition – former „religious language” – is suggested as well. The writer recommends „language of religious” – language of something which is connected with religion. The article also attempts to arise a branch of religiolinguistics in Polish linguistics research. Tłumaczenie: Ewa Adamus
