French Artisanal Handicraft – Craft Names and Their Polish Equivalents

  • Renata Krupa Jean Moulin University Lyon 3
Keywords: crafts; handicraft; artisanal handicraft; comparative terminology

Abstract

The article deals with the presentation, classification and translation of names of crafts in general, and particularly the field of fashion and accessories. It should be emphasized that the know-how related to the artisanal handicraft in France has always been appreciated and recognized worldwide. The difficulty of translating terms in a specialized field such as the names of crafts results from the fact that some of them are kept alive in a given culture while they are classified as forgotten or old ones in another culture. Finding suitable equivalents sometimes requires a diachronic study based on historical and cultural knowledge.
