The aim of the article is a reconstruction of the image of the city and its inhabitantsdone on the basis of nearly seventy songs found in Łódź folklore texts from the interwarperiod.The regionality of folklore texts is shown in particularly strong way in the image ofthe city and its space. It is indicated by local names, authentic urban object names: cafes,restaurants and also by quite realistic image of the city.In the contrary, the picture of two main social classes of inhabitants – the factoryworkers and the outcasts of the society – is rather standardized, typical and generalized.If we compare the texts from Łódź to the texts from Warsaw, striking similaritywill be easy to observe. The resemblance is obvious in the naming (personal names), thelanguage used by the social classes, and in the way of evaluating the social attitude – particularlyin relation to the criminal world.
