Abstract. The study aims to analyse and summarise perception of the 1917 revolutionary events by the creative intelligentsia and its embodiment in the Russian writers’ literary heritage. Scientific novelty of the study lies in conducting a comprehensive analysis of archival materials, writers’ diaries, contemporaries’ memoirs and literary works. By analysing the Voronezh writer E. M. Militsyna’s sources of personal origin and publicistic works, it is possible to recreate her enthusiastic attitude to the 1917 revolutionary events, to capture subsequent regressive change in her views that occurred under the influence of the revolutionary reality, the writer’s reflection concerning disappointment in and subsequent reconciliation with the reality. As a result, it is proved that internal contradictions in the attitude of a prominent representative of the Russian creative intelligentsia to the revolution are a valuable source that allows the researchers to study socio-psychological nature of the particular epoch.
