Popis In this chapter, I examine two types of Slavic derived collective nouns, namely spatial collectives such as Polish kwiecie ‘clump of flowers’ and social collectives like duchowieństwo ‘collective of priests, clergy’. While the former refer to collections of objects perceived as coherent spatial configurations, the latter denote groups of human individuals performing a salient social role. Building on Grimm (2012) and Zobel (2017), I propose an analysis that treats the Slavic derived collective nouns in question as predicates true of spatial and social clusters, respectively. The proposal extends mereotopology to the abstract domain of social roles.
