Tekla Teresa Łubieńska

Tekla Teresa Łubieńska (née Bielińska; 6 June 1767, Warsaw – August 1810, Kraków) was a Polish playwright, poet and translator.

From then on, she was in the care of the duchess, Barbara Sanguszko, her maternal grandmother who gave her a French education.

[1] While Tekla's husband was involved in the turbulent politics of the Targowica Confederation, she left pregnant for Prague with her children.

According to Skimborowicz: Polish theatre owes [Tekla] several translations of Voltaire's plays, but he fails to mention which ones.

An extract of a translated poem by Frenchman, A. Deshoulières is acknowledged as Tekla's by the Warsaw Illustrated weekly in 1863.
