There is no special chair on Rus' in France. In history faculties, most of the Russia specialists work on the 19 th -century Russian Empire, Soviet and post-Soviet Russia. Thus, French and Frenchspeaking research on the Historiography of Rus' is often associated with research on modern Russia or Byzantine studies. The main topics are source editions and critical approaches to sources; the Tatar yoke; Church and religion; the arts and culture of medieval Rus.
