Traditional esthetic categories in linguistic interpretation
The notion of “beauty” is structured in respect to human language. Beauty in the
language means: something unusual, very clear in sense, sparing use of words, the truth of
the good. In the narrow sense, harmony in language is created in the course of its use, and
in the wide sense, objective harmony is formed in the historical development. Linguistic
harmony can be internal and external, it is binary. Playing qualities of language are also an
esthetic feature. They are illustrated on the Russian language. The opinions of Russian contemporary
thinkers about esthetic qualities of Russian are present. The ecological level of
linguistic communication also refers to linguistic esthetics. Ecological noise and pralanguage
are blended together. The problem of comparing languages in their esthetic characteristics
is touched upon. The ideas of Coleridge, Leibniz, W. Humboldt, Reid are included
into the considerations.
