Editing Helena Modjeska (section)

==Chłapowski==
On September 12, 1868, Modjeska married a Polish nobleman, Karol Bożenta Chłapowski.{{sfn |Shattuck |1987 |p=126}}{{sfn |Modjeska |1910 |p=154}} Best known in America as "Count Bozenta," he was not a [[count]]. His family belonged to the untitled landed gentry (''[[ziemiaństwo]]''). In the [[United States]] he adopted the stage name "Count Bozenta" as a ploy to gain publicity. "Bozenta" was easier for an English-speaking audience to pronounce than "Chłapowski."{{sfn |Modjeska |1910 |p=346}}

At the time of their marriage, Chłapowski was employed as the editor of a liberal nationalist newspaper, ''Kraj'' (The Country), which was owned by Adam [[Sapieha]] and a Mr. Sammelson.{{sfn |Modjeska |1910 |p=174}} Modjeska wrote that their home "became the center of the artistic and literary world [of Kraków]." Poets, authors, politicians, artists, composers and other actors frequented Modjeska's [[salon (gathering)|salon]].{{sfn |Modjeska |1910 |p=174}}
