The focus of the book is to further develop the theories of W. Humboldt, B. Croce and K. Vossler. The book specifically evaluates language thinking theories of American linguists E. Sapir and B. L. Whorf. These theories are used as a base to create a modern concept of aesthetic aspects of language. The main purpose of the book is to expose the potential of beauty in languages. The book enables the reader to fully understand the aesthetics method and apply it to their native language and other foreign languages. The study offers new methods of the language's positive influence on human mentality.
