Since the middle of the 19th century, many French citizens had been in contact with the Russian scientific world through the academic missions. These field scholars enabled the sharing of knowledge, experience and ideas between France and Russia. Among all the academic researchers of that time, the name of Baron Joseph de Baye stood out. During his 30 years in Russia the scientific interests of this archaeologist, ethnographer, historian, writer, collector and popularizer were boundless. J. de Baye played a big part in developing Franco-Russian cultural ties without any official or academic post. Thanks to his travels and donations, French library and museum’s collections were enriched or even created. The research project offers a fresh approach to J. de Baye’s biography, collections and archive funds. It explores the generation of knowledge between France and Russia and the evolution of such terms as discipline and heritage.
