Excerpt from Notes of My Captivity in Russia: In the Years 1794, 1795, and 1796
Julian Ursyn Niemcewicz, Secretary to the Senate, and subsequently a Senator of the Kingdom of Poland, and President of the Royal Society of the Friends of Sciences at Warsaw, was born in 1757, at Skoki, in the Palatinate of Brzesc, in Lithuania. After having finished his education in the corps of Cadets at Warsaw, he spent several years in visiting France, Germany, and Italy.
Having been elected Nuncio for the Palatinate of Livonia, he made a brilliant political debut at the grand constituent Diet, which lasted from the year 1788 to 1792.
