This article deals with the forms and functions of poetic reflection on selected varieties, styles, and discourses of the Polish language. The study is based on Młynarski’s entire oeuvre, including books, archival materials (from the Museum of Literature in Warsaw), and concert recordings. The methodological framework draws on linguistic and literary studies of metalanguage (Jakobson 1960; Mayenowa 1979; Okopień-Sławińska 2001; Bolecki 1985; Korpysz 2001; Głowiński 2009; Pajdzińska 2021), complemented by tools from linguistic stylistics. The author discusses the most significant strategies for creating the “represented worlds” (Bolecki 1985) of the Polish language, and organizes the analyzes it into the categories of “other people’s”, “alien”, and “own” speech. Moreover, the article indicates the need to reconsider the traditional understanding of the metalinguistic function, particularly as it relates to the category of material supposition.
