Epitalamium Antoniego Marcina Sienkiewicza dla Marii Zofii Sieniawskiej – chrześnicy króla Augusta II Sasa i cara Piotra I

This article presents critical edition of enlightenment period’s epithalamium of Antoni Marcin Sienkiewicz (1690–1752) titled “Konstelacyja pierwszych koronnego nieba planet” (“A constellation of the most brilliant planets of the crown sky”). The epithalamium was written in 1724 on the occasion of Maria Zofia Sieniawska’s wedding with Stanislaw Ernest Denhoff. Since some references in the text might be difficult for today’s readers, this article includes the necessary clarifications on mythological characters and the overview of Sieniawski’s and Lubomirski’s families. Moreover, the article presents a short historical note about the author’s biography (he was considered as the most prolific panegyrist of Polish nobility), as well as about Maria Zofia Sieniawska, to whom the work was originally dedicated.
