The article is an attempt to carry out a linguistic analysis of the image of woman included in selected works of the Polish literature from the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. It presents representative models of women typical of that time: a type of a romantic lover, a positivistic liberated woman, and Young Poland’s femme fatale, as exemplified in Poganka by Narcyza Żmichowska, Szalona by Józef Ignacy Kraszewski and Pożegnanie jesieni by Stanisław Ignacy Witkiewicz, in order to discover features essential to create social patterns of gender perception. The article has been divided into three parts. Each part is a separate analysis of linguistic devices that serve to create the image of the fair sex in a given epoch as well as indicate the realization of a stereotypical model of femininity. This model determines basic roles of woman in the world – as wife, mother and lover.
