Konfesjonimia, czyli o terminologii dotyczącej wyznań

The paper deals with confessionymy, that is, terminology of different religious denominations. Three new terms are proposed for different types of confessionyms: anthropoconfessionym (e.g. Lutheran), chrematoconfessionym (e.g. Evangelical Lutheran Church in America) and abstract confessionym (e.g. Lutheranism). The paper includes also definitions of such terms as confession, rite and denomination, as well as a short summary of the internal divisions in Christianity throughout ages.
