This article examines the antecedents and background of the antithesis between art and beauty. It also considers if this confrontation, typical in modern aesthetics, provides necessary conceptual categories to comprehend the situation of art in the communication era, characteristic of a generalised aesthetisation. Departing from the ideas posed by Yves Michaud, Mateu Cabot, Didi-Huberman and Mario Perniola, the author dismantles the false opposition between art and beauty; she proposes a strategy to avoid an antithetical position and exhorts the readers to recover a different experience from beauty.

The article deals with the structure and semantics of color elements in the poetic texts by David Samoylov. Colorism manifests itself in three ways: as a color image recreated from the context, as substituted metonymy, and as words denoting color semantics. In this paper, using a continuous sample, the mechanism of manifestations of the basic monochromes “black – white” and the contaminated metatricolor “blue – green – red” is investigated on the basis of a complete collection of Samoylov’s poems. As a result of the article, a frequency dictionary of color elements was created, a semantic and structural analysis of five color images was carried out, and an ideological and thematic complex of the poet’s poetry was determined.
The article deals with some of the sermons of a Ukrainian writer, preacher, and cultural figure, Ioаnikii Galytovsky, as characteristic Baroque works. The sermon belongs to traditional genres of ancient Ukrainian literature with a set of predominantly medieval style topoi and stereotypes. However, in Galytovsky’s creative practice, the transformation of the genre under the influence of Baroque is noticeable. Belonging to this style has provided not only a change of narrative strategy but above all of stylistic means. Galytovsky creates distinctive allegories, symbols, comparisons, and antitheses which characterise his Baroque style. He resorted to characteristic Baroque amplifications and emblematic images. The writer was able to revive the old form of traditional sermon with the Baroque stylistic technique, as a result of which he managed to dramatise the gospel plots, thus being able to exert the expected impact on recipients with the help of a suggestion.
Linguistic and stylistic properties of various literatures can only be assessed when evaluated on the basis of the specific way of thinking, of the philosophy of life in general and of the religion in particular, as related to their specific concerns and answers. While dealing with the Hebrew Bible it becomes evident, that the most characteristic unifying force is the following fundamental antithesis: the verticality and radicality of God, evident in his promises, his deeds, and by the attitude of those who follow him versus the horizontality of idols and of human disobedience and its consequences. In spite of thematic and formal variety, the same vertical-horizontal dimension is conspicuous everywhere. The fundamentally inadequate relationship between transcendental realities and our available expressive categories is the main reason for using poetic and narrative means of expression. Literary forms of antithesis are used to express theological-moral motivations by conjoining terms, sentences and larger units and by disjoining sense regarding the nature, quality, or action of persons or things. The concept of antithesis appears to have multiple meanings, and it is therefore necessary to state at the outset that in this paper on the concept of antithesis is treated primarily in the rhetorical-stylistic sense. As regards the Hebrew Bible, the theological principles are always of prime significance. Most antitheses in the Hebrew Bible are constructed in the form of antithetic parallelism; nevertheless most antithetic units are original in terms of theme as well as the form.
Artykuł stanowi omówienie kategorii ozdobności retorycznej (ornatus) w podręcznikach wymowy autorstwa trzech jezuitów z XVII wieku: Macieja Kazimierza Sarbiewskiego, Zygmunta Lauksmina i Jana Kwiatkiewicza. Antyczni nauczyciele retoryki najczęściej łączyli ją z rozmaitymi przekształceniami językowymi, znanymi pod nazwą tropów czy figur słów i myśli. Jej głównym wyznacznikiem stała się szeroko rozumiana figuratywność. Porównanie sposobów opisania tej kategorii w podręcznikach trzech autorów czerpiących inspiracje z dzieł Cycerona i Kwintyliana pozwala ukazać zmiany w myśleniu o ozdobności i przeobrażenia, jakim podlegał cyceronianizm we wczesnonowożytnej teorii i praktyce retorycznej. Otwarciu na nowe inspiracje stylistyczne towarzyszyła troska o błyskotliwość wypowiedzi. Wśród najczęściej stosowanych schematów wysłowienia znalazły się wówczas alegoria, metafora, peryfraza i antonomazja.

The paper attempts at describing the category of rhetorical ornamentation (ornatus) in the textbooks of eloquence by three 17th c. Jesuits: Maciej Kazimierz Sarbiewski (1595–1640), Zygmunt Lauksmin (1596–1670), and Jan Kwiatkiewicz (1629–1703). Ancient rhetoric teachers linked it with many linguistic forms known under the names of various tropes and figures. Broadly understood figuration became its main determinant. A comparison of the modes of describing this category in the three textbooks, the authors of which were inspired by Aristotle, Cicero, and Quintilian, allows to expound the changes in thinking about ornamentation and transformations that Ciceronianism unterwent in early-modern theory and oratorical practice. Opening to new stylistic inspiration was accompanied by concern for brilliance of expression. The most commonly used rhetorical devices were allegory, metaphor, antithesis, periphrasis, and antonomasia.
