Paralelizm estetyczno-etyczny a konwencja gatunkowa fantasy
Streszczenie
This paper constitutes a summary of studies in the field of axiological linguistics. Its
main aim is to present a relationship between the moral judgement and the aesthetic
evaluation of characters in the Polish fantasy literature and to elaborate on some of their
their characteristics. The study shows that most of the analysed characters were created
on the basis of an aesthetic and ethical parallelism, which means that the righteousbeautiful
or the evil-hideous types are realized. Yet the parallelism is by no means overt
in the literature. A tremendous role in modification of the character’s profile is played by such attributes as the character’s eyes and voice. Descriptions of the character’s body
frame and scars, recurring features in the character’s profile, and means of indirect
valuation (mostly colour) are axiologically analysed. Also, the most pronounced trends
in the use of primarily evaluative means are pointed out.
