The Festschrift is a collection of papers written in honour of Professor Elżbieta Mańczak-Wohlfeld to mark the occasion of her 70th birthday.
Professor Elżbieta Mańczak-Wohlfeld is one of the leading authorities in the field of language contact, and has pursued research on the influence of English on Polish and other European languages, Polish-English contrastive studies, as well as various aspects of English grammar. She has authored more than 160 publications, including four books, as well as course books and academic papers. She has also edited and co-edited dictionaries of English borrowings in Polish.
The Festschrift volume comprises papers from the world of linguistics which have been authored by eminent scholars from Poland and abroad. The chapters included in the volume focus on various issues, including those from the area of contact linguistics. The topics covered in the research papers comprise, for instance, the influence of English on different languages, such as Polish, Danish, Afrikaans, Swedish, Spanish, German and Japanese, as well as on Asian languages and cultures. The authors investigate Celtic borrowings in Polish, anglicisms in Serbian, or Yiddish borrowings in contemporary American English. The contributions also discuss the phenomenon of Ponglish, i.e., the communication code used by Poles living in the UK, the presence of foreign languages in the linguistic landscape of Kraków, as well as the problem of multilingualism in Europe, the relation between language, culture and identity, and the influence of globalisation on both Polish language and culture. Finally, selected chapters address a range of phenomena related to Karaim, Russenorsk, and Turkish.
Anna Tereszkiewicz, PhD, is Assistant Professor in the Institute of English Studies at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland. Her main research interests involve broadly defined computer-mediated communication, the discourse of social media, news discourse and professional communication. Her recent studies concern online news genres, online citizen journalism as well as online corporate communication.
Magdalena Szczyrbak, PhD, is Assistant Professor at the Institute of English Studies, Jagiellonian University, Kraków, Poland. Her research interests are mainly in the areas of discourse analysis and corpus-assisted discourse studies applied to legal discourse and, in particular, to the study of stance-related and evaluative patterns in legal genres. Her most recent studies focus on the use of mental and communication verbs in courtroom examinations and judicial opinions, and their role in epistemic and evidential marking. She is currently researching stance-related interaction patterns in jury trials with a special emphasis on the strategies pursued in expert witness examinations. Professor Szczyrbak is a member of several professional associations (International Language and Law Association, American Pragmatics Association, Polish Linguistic Society) and she is a certified Polish-English translator and court interpreter.
