Abstract. The research aims to identify the general linguistic, general cultural and ethno-cultural features of the linguistic personality of the 17th-century Dutch philosopher Baruch Spinoza. The scientific novelty of the research lies in highlighting the peculiarities of discursive constructions of the Dutch thinker’s linguistic personality in terms of studying the linguosemiotic mechanisms of the functioning of special terms, both in the space of a complete utterance and at the level of the universal stock of philosophical language. One of the main epistemological aspects of the work is the elaboration of the problems of linguistic interpretation of personality as a semiotic whole and value, i.e. the questions of searching for the foundations of subjective or universal identity, which can be answered one way or another by referring to language. An important consideration of the study is the identification of correlations between the conceptual and epistemic dimensions of knowledge, in other words, between linguistic analysis and conceptual analysis of the text. The research findings showed the predominance of universal features in the Dutch thinker’s philosophical discourse and also made it possible to discover the information about elements of his worldview and mentality as a native speaker of a national language at the level of the linguistic personality. The data obtained allowed the researcher to identify the features of Spinoza’s linguistic personality that are relevant for modern ways of overcoming critical and stressful situations on the course to existential stabilisation of behavioural models of cognition and communication.
