Abstract
The article continues a series of studies devoted to the three-volume Memoirs by T.N. Livanova the publication of which is being prepared at the State Institute for Art Studies. The article considers several types of verbal portraits created by the memoirist. First, these are images of the people Livanova got acquainted with in the evacuation. Nowadays, almost nothing is known about them and it is the features of the text as such that remain the object of research. Another collection is made up of portraits of Livanova’s students, some of whom gained an odious reputation. A separate line of memoirs consists of “double” portraits not of musicians or musicologists but representatives of allied specializations of the humanities. Finally, roughly in the middle of Livanova’s narrative is an extended, multi-figured canvas dedicated to the Wipper family.
