Warszawska Misja Nuncjusza Angela Duriniego od jej Inauguracji do Końca Pierwszego Roku Konfederacji Barskiej (Lipiec 1767 — Luty 1769)
The Warsaw Mission of Nuncio Angelo Durini, from Its Inauguration until the End of the First Year of Bar Confederation (July 1767 — February 1769)

Summary/Abstract: Angelo Maria Durini was papal nuncio in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth in 1767–1772. Historians have asked more than once whether he only represented the position of the pope or whether he exceeded his instructions. The attitude of the diplomat Durini and his relations with the anti-royal opposition seem to suggest not so much overstepping his authority as a one-sided approach to papal directives that were quite familiar with the concept of compromise.
