Abstract

The article is devoted to contacts of outstanding Russian and Soviet scholar Michael Sjuzjumov with historians-émigrés and the others prominent Byzantinologists in the middle of the 20th century. The letter written by Sjuzjumov to the specialist on the history of Serbian medieval law A. V. Soloviev is at the center of attention. The authors prove that the beginning of relations between Sjuzjumov and foreign colleagues was connected with his work under new edition of the “Book of the Eparch”.
