Summary
The review analyzed the characteristics and content of a unique ego-source, the memoirs of a prominent figure in the revolutionary movement of late Imperial Russia S. Имя автора воспоминаний – видного эсера Сергея Андреевича Никонова (1864–1942) – хорошо известно ученым, изучающим общественнополитическое движение России конца XIX – начала XX в. А. Никонов не оказался в числе репрессированных советской властью, тем не менее «Дамоклов меч» сталинского режима угрожающе висел над его головой всю оставшуюся жизнь.
