The Duke became famous mostly as an oppressor of the Poles, a raving madman and belvedere animal. However, source research shows a lot of changes in his behavior. Among the citizens of Warsaw, the capital of Poland, there could be found some who spoke dearly about the Duke?s humor, caregiving and even a kind of fondness of the Polish people. Joanna Grudzińska, who agreed to marry the tyrant, is considered to be the main reason of these transformations. It is worth to devote a moment to take a look at this marriage and what the citizens of Warsaw thought of it.}, type={artykuł}, title={"Tyran prosi o rękę najładniejszej z niewiast polskich": obraz małżeństwa Joanny Grudzińskiej i Wielkiego Księcia Konstantego w świetle pamiętników =}, title={"Tyrant proposes to the fairest of Polish maiden" ? the marriage of Joanna Grudzińska and the Grand Duke Konstantin as depicted in memoirs}, keywords={Romanow, Konstanty Pawłowicz (wielki książę rosyjski ; 1779-1831), Grudzińska, Joanna (1795-1831), pamiętnik}, }
