Abstract: The works of F. A. Stepun are an important phenomenon in the early 1930s émigré discussion on personal freedom. Despite a relatively low interest towards his legacy and persona, many of the ideas and thoughts are currently gaining social significance. Using the method of textological analysis and comparative analysis, the author demonstrates that the formulated by F. A. Stepun idea of the trinity of personality, truth and life can be interpreted as the development of anthropological views upon the question of personality in the context of Russian liberalism. The succession of Russian liberal thought is evident in fact that he understands freedom from a creative perspective, as well as in  the indissoluble connection with truth. F. A. Stepun sees freedom as an essential condition for personal growth, realization of the creative beginning, and declares the trinity of freedom, truth and personality, which are tightly intertwined and transmit ontological saturation to one another.  Personality is not viewed outside of creative pursuit, as there is no freedom other than creative freedom. The creative beginning in a human is perceived as divine and cosmic beginning, attributed as the absolute values and meanings. At the same time, the philosopher has always believed that personality is something greater that just individuality. However, in the ultimate creative sense, it manifests in fate, which reveals the dynamism of personal becoming, depicts it in motion and development.
