nunciature in Poland, nuncio Angelo Maria Durini, papal diplomacy, Bar Confederation, King Stanisław August PoniatowskiAbstract
The article is a response to a polemic by Wojciech Kęder regarding an article about the activities of nuncio Angel Maria Durini in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth during the years 1767–1769 (“Kwartalnik Historyczny” No. 3 of 2019). In this article the errors committed by Prof. Kęder are addressed, particularly the allegations regarding the source basis and the interpretation of historical facts. In a documented manner, attention is drawn to the specific errors of the criticism published in “Studia Sandomierskie” 27 (2020), pp. 393–403.
