Mikhail Petrovich Pogodin (1800-1875) was a Russian historian, journalist, and publisher. During his professional career, he assembled a valuable collection of ancient Russian manuscripts and historical documents. His extensive study of these documents resulted in the introduction of a number of important historical sources and monuments of Russian literature, as well as classic works on Russian history. Pogodin's historical views were based on his recognition of the unique nature of the Russian historical process: unlike Western states, where, according to Pogodin, conquest was the driving force of history and the key feature of political life, the origins of Russian history are associated with the voluntary induction of the Varangians into Rus' and the peaceful adoption of Christianity. Published in 1871, "Ancient Russian History before the Mongol Yoke," in which Pogodin summarized his research on ancient Russian history, became a significant event in Russian historical scholarship, finally completing the transition to a genuine research process. In the first volume of his work, Pogodin creates a general picture of the political and legal life of Ancient Rus' from the beginning of statehood to the Mongol invasion. Particular attention is paid to the institutionalization of relations within and between principalities, comparisons and discussions of the fates of Western European states and Russian statehood during the Norman period, and, finally, contacts and conflicts with Rus''s closest neighbors.
