In the article the author analyzes the problem of historical memory in M. Kostomarov’s prose, based on the material of the novels “Chernihovka”, “Son”, “Forty Years”. M. Kostomarov’s historioso-philosophical views are taught in the light of the ideological and aesthetic platform of romanticism, dominant in idealizing
the historical past. It is determined that the concept of historical memory in Kostomarov’s prose is based on the ability to reproduce the color of the epoch of 16–18 centuries. It is found out that Kostomarov in his tales gives preference to such artistic principles as documentary and concentration on facts. The leading
writer’s prose in the artistic world is historicism. The subject of the image in the novels of Kostomarov is the representatives of various layers of society in different historical epochs. It has been found out that in the stories “Son”, «Chernihovka» the historical
epoch is represented by the relation of life and artistic truth. In the story “Forty Years” the problem of historical memory is considered in the interweaving of the problems of the sinful and righteous.
