Summary/Abstract: In this article, using the methodology of ethnological research of literary texts, the significance and specificity of artistic prose in the study of the axiological features of the institution of the Russian family in Soviet Moldova is substantiated. The artistic prose of Soviet Moldavia is presented for the first time as a source of ethnological discourse, reflecting the picture of the traditional system of values (both Russian and Moldavian), consistently formed on the basis of Christian morality by previous generations. The specifics of the historical and demographic features of the development of the family institution in the MSSR are analyzed, where the concepts of the Russian and Soviet families in this period converge and become interconnected; the concept of “Soviet family” is stipulated. Separate axiological features of the development of the institution of the Soviet family in the MSSR (family values and the nature of relations in the family) are considered on the basis of the novels of Russian writers L. Mishchenko “Worm¬wood – Widow’s Grass”, L. Latyeva “Divorce” and the story of the Moldavian prose writer A. Lupan “Valencha”. An important aspect of the work highlights the world of family values in the women’s prose of Soviet Moldova: through the confrontation of the social narrative and the author’s intention.
