Summary/Abstract: The discourse of the Ukrainian musical culture is contains numerous appeals to the poetic legacy by Lesya Ukrainka. Therefore, understanding the musical-theatrical, choral, cham- ber-vocal works by M. Lysenko, K. Stetsenko, Y. Stepovy, S. Lyudkevych, M. Skorulsky, S. Turkevych-Lukiyanovych, V. Kyreiko, I. Shamo, Y. Stankovych, L. Dychko, O. Koza- renko, V. Tymozhinsky and other composers who entered into a musical and poetic dialogue with the poetess, is provides an understanding the key positions of the poet’s philosophy.In our opinion, a new spiritual vision was born in the Lesya Ukrainka’s creative matrix, which embodied the Ukrainian mental Ego in the female image of a spiritual knight and presented it as a weighty component of world culture. More than a hundred years ago, the poet showed a woman’s personality as a com-creator, which has a divine beginning, and therefore we interpret its philosophy in the vein of Femin-personalism (the term is proposed).The three Love types which were shown in Lesya Ukrainka’s works and in her musical discourse are as follows: Ancient Greek “agapeˮ (in variants Love-Spirit, Love-Soul, Love-Eros), Love as a component of national Ego-concept, Love as an immortal divine spirit. The musical discourse expects the interpretation of the drama “Obsessedˮ and oth- ers from the “Blue Roseˮ to “Cassandraˮ, “In the Catacombsˮ, “Rufin and Priscillaˮ and others.
