Abstract:

This paper aims to consider how a person who has become a victim of human trafficking depicts him-/herself, as well as to comprehend the existence of models of metaphorization related to such people. The text represents an attempt to analyze a language depiction in everyday speech through a study of some first-person narratives (interviews) in Bulgarian and in Polish of people who have been direct participants in this crime.
