folklorist, teacher, and popularizer of national culture, was celebrated. The article considers the stages
of personal and professional development of the scientist, shows the conditions and circumstances
of the formation of a civic position and a scientific worldview. The contribution to the study and
popularization of the creative heritage of Kosta Khetagurov as the founder of Ossetian literature is
noted. It is emphasized that the monograph on the creative history of the «Ossetian Lyre», which is
one of the first fundamental studies of the great Ossetian poet’s work and the first work on Ossetian
textology, marked an important milestone in the development of literary criticism. The book
significantly influenced the direction of further research in Khetagurov’s studies. The article reveals
a wide range of research interests of the scholar. In numerous articles, in monographs published for
more than half a century of service to the science, various aspects of the development of the cultural
and literary process in Ossetia have been highlighted. Khadartseva’s contribution to the study of the
