Abstract

The author of the article draws a literary portrait of Jan Grotkowski (a forgotten poet of the Baroque period) based on four poetic works of Jan Andrzej Morsztyn. In this way, an interesting figure of a writer, diplomat, and influential participant in international politics emerges from the darkness of oblivion. He is connected with the figure of Queen Bona only by a mysterious death. Thus, he is included in the list of people who, as Kantecki says “fell victims of the matter on which the curse of Queen Bona lies”. Trying to solve the issue of “Neapolitan sums”, Grotkowski, like Reszka, Mąkowski and others, died in unexplained circumstances.
