Sukhovo-Kobylin, mother of historical novelist Evgeny Salias, translator, journalist, fiction writer, was at the center of Russian cultural and political life for almost thirty years. The hostess of the literary salon, the publisher of the magazine “Russian Speech”, her women’s writing had a strong influence on the formation of a psychological novel and a certain type of relationship in the literary, journalistic, intellectual environment of the second half of the XIX century. The dynamics of the entire role complex in her literary and social activities and genres set in fiction, ego documents and journalism is examined in the paper. Approaches to the study of her image mythologization and some issues of cultural distortions are also discussed.
