Abstract
The article introduces the circumstances surrounding the beginnings and ends of marriages of Elżbieta Branicka coat of arms Korczak (1732/33–1800) with two members of the Sapieha family – Jan Józef Kalasanty, the voivode of Smolensk, and Jan, the voivode of Mścisław. The work includes a discussion and elaboration of scarce pieces of information concerning the time of her birth and the period preceding her first marriage.

The main part of the article is opened by the presentation of the state of knowledge about the castellan’s daughter marriages. It is followed by a critical reading of unknown or superficially exploited sources revealing the backstage of these relationships: press reports on wedding ceremonies and the death of her second husband, the Latin decree of the church court in the case of annulment of the first marriage, a draft of an insurance script, in which the bride’s parents determined the amount and conditions for paying her dowry, fragments of Marcin Matuszewicz’s memories and letters from spouses addressed to Jan Klemens Branicki, Grand Crown Hetman. The context for new findings are conclusions and suggestions of researchers of the 18th century magnates of Poland and Lithuania. L’article présente les circonstances de la conclusion et de la rupture des mariages d’Elżbieta de Branicki du blason Korczak (1732/33–1800) avec deux membres de la famille Sapieha – Jan Józef Kalasanty, fils du gouverneur de Smoleńsk et Jan, fils du gouverneur de Mścisław. L’auteur du texte décrit et explique les hypothèses sur la naissance et la période avant le premier mariage d’Elżbieta de Branicki Sapieżyna. Ces questions sont complétées par l’analyse de Teatrum myśli… (1780) de Wenanty Tyszkowski concentrée sur le portrait élogieux de la jeune fille. La partie principale se commence par la présentation de l’état de recherche sur les mariages de la fille du châtelain. Les parties suivantes constituent une critique des sources inconnues ou négligées sur les coulisses des relations – les informations de la presse sur les cérémonies nuptiales et la mort du deuxième mari, le décret latin du tribunal ecclésiastique annulant le premier mariage, le projet du script de sécurité permettant aux parents de la jeune mariée de déterminer la grandeur et les conditions d’acquisition de sa dot, les fragments des souvenirs de Marcin Matuszewicz et aussi les lettres des époux adressées à Jan Klemens Branicki, hetman de la Couronne. Les observations et les suggestions des chercheurs de l’aristocratie du XVIIIe siècle sont mises en contexte de nouvelles constatations.
