Świat wartości odzwierciedlony w nazwach ulic warszawskiej dzielnicy Wawer

The subject matter of this article is the axiological analysis of 694 names of streets in Wawer (a Warsaw district since 1951). Its aim was to answer the question which values are preserved by the Wawer urbanonyms. The research leads to the conclusion that the described collection is not an anthropocentric one: it is primarily names related to the natural environment and space that prevail there. Onyms commemorating individual or collective heroes are a scarcity here, as are the names connoting the broadly defined culture, economy, and social life. Due to the specific conditions in which the Wawer urbanonymy was created, its nature is unique on the national scale: as many as 171 street names are ones recorded only in Wawer. Keywords: urbanonymy – Wawer – street names – axiology – urban nomenclature. Tr
