Abstrakt

This study is concerned with preliminary presentation about the organization of the court of Marie Casimire d’Arquien, wife of voievod of Sandomierz - Jan Zamoyski, called „Sobiepan”between 1658-1665. The article touched on topics related to personal details and functions performed by officials and officers. Issues related to the clerical and administrative level, officials, who performed their functions in an ad hoc manner and the existence and organization of the women’s court, were discussed. The main emphasis was put on issues of remuneration and further careers of courtiers and their attitude towards their lord. Problems, connected to client and patron relations, were also examined. The research showed a weak relationship between the wife of the ordinate and officials who were fully subservient to Zamoyski’s will. Their full devotion and dependence on landings and salary payments meant, that Maria Kazimiera often fell into conflict with her subordinates. As a foreigner, she did not understand the relationship - specific to Polish political culture -between the patron and his clients.
