Résumé anglais Ternira Pachmuss, Poland, 1920. The narrative "Poland, 1920" has been written by Z. N. Hippius at the time when she was working on her Memoirs bearing the title D. S. Merežkovskij. It is centered around the events and the projects in which the Merežkovskie were involved in Poland, after their flight from St. Petersburg in 1919. When B. V. Savinkov arrived in Warsaw, he was entrusted with the task of organizing the resistance against the Bolsheviks; D. V. Filosof o v, a friend of long standing of the Merežkovskie, became president of the Russian Committee whilst Hippius headed the literary section of the newspaper Svoboda. Pilsudski approved of the constitution of a Russian detachment acting under the guise of an "evacuation committee". After the fall of Russian autocracy, Hippius laid great hopes in Savinkov and Kerenskij whom she considered as the bearers of new ideas. She expected the overthrow of the Soviet power which she hated. When she no longer thought that Savinkov was able to direct the struggle against the Bolsheviks, she considered him as a dictator and even as an evil spirit. This narrative which stresses certain causes and aspects of the 1917 Russian revolution is interesting above all as a historical and literary document.
