Background. The article attempts to highlight the yet unexplored social and psy-chological aspect of scientific research of a famous scientist-emigrant Ivan Ilyin (1883–1954). The relevance of this theme lies in the fact that the problems them-selves remain theoretically significant and may be applied for further analysis of the history of spiritual development of humanity. Consideration of his theoretical ideas and categories is the main purpose of the present paper.
Materials and methods. Based on a review of I. A. Ilyin’s theoretical work the article provides a historiographical analysis of that part of his artistic heritage, which is connected with the study of the social and psychological aspects of history. The principle of historicism, chronological and comparative-historical methods were used in the study.

Ilyin formulated the concept of “spiritual way” of society, reveals the dominant “spiritual way” through the perception of the world on the basis of reason or based on certain metaphysical settings, offers the idea of “archetypal phenomenon” of religion which is connected with peculiarities of a religious experience structure of a particular individual of specific denomination.
