„Ślepy człowiek na swoje wady” – o dydaktyzmie w Ogrodzie, ale nie plewionym Wacława Potockiego

Abstrakt

We describe here the ways to express didactism in various genres from The Garden, but Not Weeded by W. Potocki, the poet of the 17^th century. The author has manage to find out that the didactic function is played by the titles, the contents – being an example – with inherent maxims, counsels, warnings etc. Potocki very clearly formulated his moralising intentions and played the role of a mentor.
