In a time of unprecedented challenges and uncertainty, coupled with steadfast belief in victory and a peaceful future, the university’s academic community remains committed to studying Dovzhenko’s diverse creative legacy. The study emphasises the importance of a comprehensive and conceptual approach to analysing his artistic works.

Additionally, it outlines the publication’s lexicon, semantic field, educational objectives, and linguodidactic orientation.

Originality. The development of “Diary Entries: A Dedication Essay” represents a novel scholarly contribution. For the first time, a manual combining popular science and educational content has been created to commemorate both the 150th anniversary of Oleksandr Dovzhenko Hlukhiv National Pedagogical University and the 130th anniversary of O. P. Dovzhenko. The manual’s role in fostering professional competencies in future teachers specialising in Ukrainian language and literature is thoroughly substantiated.
