Abstrakt: The most essential and accessible sources of our understanding of the content of a concept are dictionary definitions. The dictionary article contains the data of phonological, lexical, phraseological and grammatical levels of the language. Examples of the use of lexical items in the dictionaries give us an idea about their place in the cultural and axiological system of the speakers of a particular language. This article is devoted to the study of representation of LONELINESS concept in English lexicographic sources. We attempted to identify typical means of verbalization of the concept of LONELINESS in the English linguistic culture, to establish specific features of their structure and functioning, and to analyze and describe the constitutive characteristics of the concept of LONELINESS as a knowledge structure. The obtained results allow us to talk about the detailed contemplation of the concept under study by means of English lexicography, as well as to specify its axiological, conceptual and figurative components.
