Abstract. The article is devoted to studying the key meaningful dominants associated with the authoress’s personality and ancient female images in the creative heritage of H?lo?se, Peter Abelard’s beloved. The researcher discovers what particular images she used, analyzes their interpretation by ancient authors, reveals meaningful differences in H?lo?se’s and her predecessors’ interpretations, which allows identifying personal components. The image of an ancient "wise virgin" most vividly represented in Ovid’s poem "Heroides" dominates. The heroines’ experience provides H?lo?se wide opportunities to construct new identities both for herself and for Abelard combining Christian (monastic) and pagan (philosophical) mentality.
