The aim of the article is a linguo-cultural analysis of the concept of “freedom” in the language of H. Skovoroda’s works, which verbalizes the code of the national con sciousness of Ukrainians and the linguistic consciousness of the writer-philosopher. Within this goal, the following tasks have been solved: the semiotic content of the concept of “freedom” in the cognitive-semantic fi eld of life and work of H. Skovoroda and in the context of Ukrainian culture was clarifi ed; its connotations were revealed. The concept of “freedom” is one of the determinants of the linguistic consciousness of the Ukrainian pe ople and an individual speaker, the evidence of which is the verbal oral folk and professional creativity of Ukrainians and a number of connotations to it. The language of H. Skovoroda’s works is a syncretic example of Old Slavonic, as the oldest literary language of the Slavs, and colloquial Ukrainian of the time of the writer-philosopher, as well as modern Ukrainian literary language. The word-deno tation “freedom” and connotations to it (“equal inequality”, “happiness”, “related work”, “freedom”, “Bogdan the Hero”, “cheerful spirit”, “deep heart”, “the world tried to catch me but failed” and others) have a mental and ideological specifi cs, as they conceptualize the teachings of H. Skovoroda about man and the meaning of life. The writer-philosopher mostly uses in his speech a lexical way of expressing the con notative meaning of the concept of “freedom” through such tropes as comparisons, epithets, phraseologisms and other means of poetic speech, sometimes authorial in novations that give dynamism to this lexical-semantic fi eld allegory as the dominant features of his style.Prospects for further research are related to the linguistic and cultural substan tiation of the concept of “freedom” in the language of the works of Lesya Ukrainka, who, like H. Skovoroda, represents the Ukrainian philosophical and literary tradition of existential orientation.
