It also seeks to determine how this prohibition functioned in social practice. To this aim, I employed a microhistorical approach, analysing two court cases from the 1730s. In the first, a member of the butchers’ guild was suspected of having killed a dog; in the second, another butcher was accused of contact with a knacker’s tools. In both instances, the accused faced the loss of honour and, consequently, exclusion from the guild community. As the cases demonstrate, however, the mere transgression of the taboo was not in itself sufficient to bring an individual into disrepute. It was also necessary for a public accusation to emerge under circumstances that the community could not ignore.}, title={„Ty niegodzien być między nami w cechu, boś ty zabił sukę”.
