Constantin Alexandru Rosetti (2 June 1816–8 April 1885) was
a Romanian literary and political leader, born in Bucharest into a Phanariot
Greek family.
In 1845, Rosetti went to Paris, where he met Alphonse de Lamartine, the
patron of the Society of Romanian Students in Paris. In 1847, he married
Mary Grant, the sister of the English consul to Bucharest, Effingham Grant.
The consul was married to Zoia Racoviţă, the daughter of Alexandru Racoviţă;
the Grant Bridge (Podul Grant) near Gara de Nord in Bucharest is named after
him.
