The basic source for the research is the preserved personal correspondence of six diplomats from the period concerned.

One of the main objectives of the work is to clarify how the imperial envoys perceived the parliamentary tradition and practice of Polish-Lithuanian state and also how they were personally involved in the affairs of the Seim and royal court. An essential part of the work is the analysis of a diplomat´s audience with the Seim, fractionalism of the Seim and the envoy´s interaction with the sovereign during both official and unofficial events. Other important part of the thesis is an interpretation of the symbolic meaning of festivities which the imperials diplomats at the Polish court took part in e.g. weddings, funerals, elections and coronations. The work also focuses on the private component of the diplomat´s mission and its most important institution of "patronage and good friendship", owing to which many locked doors could have been entered and which enabled diplomats having the security of the financial support of their mother country. Informal activities of diplomats comprised also travelling within legation and different related dangers. The author also deals with the health condition of diplomats and the ways their health problems influenced their daily routines during a diplomatic mission. Last but not least part of the work treats the Habsburg diplomat´s perception of Polish, Russian and Tatar people and the communication network of imperial envoys.
