The purpose of this article was to present the conceptual framework for the concepts WAR, PEACE, VICTORY, which were recorded in the texts of students written in one of the classrooms of Educational and Scientific Institute of Journalism, Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv for three hours in April 2024 and combined into a book that was published on the same day. The relevance of this study is determined by the need to study the conceptualization of the linguistic picture of the world and its presentation through the communicative practice of the linguistic personality in longitudinal stress situations. Method. When collecting the essays, the continuous sampling method was used, which allowed selecting lexemes with appropriate meanings and, based on the analysis of the compatibility of the selected lexemes with others. The methods of analysis of dictionary definitions and component analysis contributed to the allocation of actualized semes in the structure of the meaning of the word and stimulated the development of concept fields of the selected concepts. The comparative method was used to search for differences in the functioning of subconcepts in the specified fields. The results of the study are presented by the descriptive method. Results and conclusions. The specified topic led to the allocation of three concepts, on the basis of which the text was developed and concept fields were formed. The concept of WAR was presented as an armed confrontation, its conceptual field is formed by subconcepts – nominations that present war realities, names of feelings and their manifestations ('grief', 'pain', 'tears', etc.). The concepts of VICTORY and PEACE in the works of the contributors are closely interconnected, their conceptual space is "supported" by the subconcepts of 'expression of feelings', 'meeting', 'trip', 'journey'. The emotional range of the fields is shifted towards the nomination of sadness, sorrow, and tears, even when it comes to peace and victory.
