Abstract
Reports of the Polish diplomatic mission in Madrid from the years 1791–1792 Excerpt from the diplomatic correspondence of the Polish mission in Madrid is one of more than a dozen of this type of manuscripts preserved at the Central Archives of Historical Records in Warsaw. There are two main reasons why this record was selected to the publication. Firstly, it contains a summary of diplomatic correspondence with Spain, the most distant country with that Poland resumed diplomatic relations in the years 1791-1794 and the country extremely exotic to Poles of that time. Secondly, the original reports did not survive. The excerpt was drawn up in the office of the Lithuanian Deputy Chancellor Joachim Chreptowicz, Minister of Foreign Affairs at the Council of Inspection (government). It contains extracts of correspondence from the initial, the most interesting period of the activity of the Polish embassy in Madrid, when Poland led an independent foreign policy and mattered in the diplomatic game as an independent player. Excerpt is divided into two parts. The first one includes correspondence of the envoy Tadeusz Morski, and the second one contains correspondence of his successor, chargé d’affaires, Kajetan Zbyszewski. Extracts from the correspondence of Tadeusz Morski cover period from April 11th, 1791 to September 22nd, 1791, shortly before Morski’s departure from Madrid. Zbyszewski’s correspondence comes from the period from 26th September 1791 to 6th August 1792. Most drafts of reports by Zbyszewski, that are summarized in the published excerpts, are located at the Ossoliński National Institute in Wrocław, among the records of the Polish embassy in Madrid (Mss. 487 and 923).
