L'Eglise armenienne et le grand schisme d'Orient, Nina G. Garsoian's 1999 study from Peeters, is a scholarly history of the Armenian Church's separation from the wider Byzantine communion, by a leading historian of medieval Armenia. Its strength is deep command of Armenian and Byzantine primary sources from an established specialist, published by an academic press specializing in Eastern Christian and Near Eastern studies. Its limit is that it is written in French, which limits direct accessibility for readers without the language, and it treats one specific historical schism in depth rather than the Armenian Church's fuller history.
