The article describes the collection of letters of Pomeranian voivode’s wife Konstacja Czapska addressed to her daughter Magdalena and her son-in-law, duke Hieronim Florian Radziwiłł. The letters from the collection of the Central Archives of Historical Records in Warsaw appeared to be a very important and useful source to research the history of this stormy marriage, which was taken probably in 1745 and ended after several years by its annulment. The emotional relation between Magdalena and Hieronim Radziwiłł was shown in recently published letters of Magdalena addressed first to her fiancé and later husband (introduction and ed. I. Maciejewska, K. Zawilska, Olsztyn 2016). Letters written by Konstancja Czapska are a priceless voice in understanding the marriage, yet they were not given much space in the aforementioned edition for obvious reasons. Nonetheless, it is a very interesting collection, showing the author’s correspondence talent and intelligence and also the ability to diversify her statements depending on the aim and addressee. It is an interesting evidence of the relationship between a mother and a daughter, which is important not only at the moment of arranging the marriage taken in unusual circumstances, but also when it becomes a source of support during the crisis in the marriage.
