Résumé anglais Pierre Voillery, Between Russia and Bulgaria. Contribution to the history of the first Bulgarian church in Constantinople. This previously unpublished text of Alexander Exarh pertaining to the foundation of a Bulgarian church in Constantinople constitutes a contribution to the history of the national revival of Bulgaria insofar as it represents a testimony of one of the principal promoters of this event. The author does not supply a new interpretation of this question but clarifies some of its points. He reinstates the role played by A. Exarh in the establishment of an autonomous Bulgarian church; he points out the balance of power then prevailing within the Bulgarian community of the Ottoman capital and supplies a better understanding of the rivalry that opposed foreign Powers desirous to acquire the control of this movement; finally he throws a light on the interplay of different factions within the leading circles of the Ottoman Empire, be they Turkish or Greek.
