Diagrams of Jubé's Russian voyage

Jacques Jubé sometimes called Jubé de la Cour, (26 March 1674 in Vanves – 19 December 1745 in Paris) was a French priest, teacher and memoirist. He became known initially in his youth, during the Regency, by his liturgical reforms in the parish of Asnières-sur-Seine. He lived in exile during the second half of his existence, mainly in the Netherlands where he published most of his work. But it is the three years he spent in Russia under the reign of Peter II and Anna of Russia, which attracted the attention of his contemporaries and his principal biographer, historian . Jubé resided in Moscow as a chaplain of Princess who had newly converted to Catholicism, and tutor to the children. The premature death of the young Tsar Peter II put an abrupt end to his projects. Expelled in 1732 by the Tsarina Anna, he has recorded his experiences in Russia in a book entitled "Religion, morality, and customs of Moscow. This book is one of the few documents of the time describing in detail the customs and daily life in Russia during this period and is distinguished by its many illustrations from the hand of Jubé.
