Resumo
The focus of the article is on the work of one of the most significant thinkers of the first wave of Russian emigration, Georgy Petrovich Fedotov (1881—1951). In his essays he often writes about history and related issues like will and historical determinism. Despite G.P. Fedotov's position of accepting free will and criticism of historical determinism, in fact, elements of determinism are present in the thinker's works and are an integral part of all historiosophy. Based on the above, the article aims to identify mechanisms that allow combining the identified contradiction. The category of time is the first to become the centre of the research focus. With its help, it is possible to separate history as a concept and an event as a co-existence. Moreover, this leads to the separation of the historical narrative and
the field of social activity. The last one acquires autonomy from the conceptual history within the framework of the historiosophy developed by G.P. Fedotov.
