Abstract

The article describes Gustav III’s attempts to save the French monarchy, the then political situation in Europe, and the attitude of individual European powers to the French Revolution. The authors try to show a close relation between the policy of the Stockholm court towards revolutionary France and the actions of the king of Sweden in Central and Eastern Europe. The study uses hitherto neglected sources such as correspondence of Swedish diplomats from St Petersburg, Madrid and Warsaw, or records found in the Riksarkivet in Stockholm. Thus, the presented article should fill the existing research gap in the abovementioned area of interest.
