The creative spirit of Language. Article 2. "Aesthetic infinity"

Throughout all history of lingua-philosophical searches and comprehension of the deep nature of Language the philosophy of the language, following transcendental tradition of philosophy as a whole, keeping in contact with classical transcendental idealism, at the same time was in close contact with philosophy of life and philosophy of revelation, philosophy of creativity and philosophy of art. It attests to a radical shift of the rational paradigm and gradual finding of other rationality which is based on live aesthetic experience of thought and organically including the aesthetics of language: the aesthetics of thought demands aesthetics of word. The creative beginning of a priori is laid in the nature and memory of Language: by everlasting Perfect Word, Divine Logos is created and continuously creates the World in its truly fine image. The language, attached to Divine World creation, initially perceives inexpressible Beauty of the World, covers World Gestalt in all completeness of its being, variety of all of its individual and unique manifestations, possessing infinite possibilities of expression of its cultural polyphony. If the World is creation and revelation of everlasting Perfect Word, Divine Logos, then it is logical by nature, that is, it is conformable to Logos, expresses itself by the language of beauty, and Language is created (Ergon) and is creating (Energeia) according to the same principles of beauty and harmony, which is the basis of the creative plan of the Universe invisibly operating it. Language is not simply subordinated to the laws of world harmony, but common in its being to Beauty, Truth, Love, Good, stays with them in the relations of co-authorship, comes into the World as revelation. Language itself is an aesthetic infinity if to understand aesthetics at the same time in the primary etymological meaning of the word "aesteticos" (sensuality, sensual experience) and in wider philosophical sense as ontology, the doctrine about the World, which is created in the state of Beauty and harmony of the Person and the World. Culture as a way of creative life of the Person starts with a religious cult and contains memory of the initial creative act of the Absolute Creator, stores the secret of the Divine embodiment in the World eternally created by the Word. The deep intimate nature of Culture does not appear to be the Transcendental subject of Kant, but finds possibility of revelation due to the transcendental reminiscence of the Poet of primordial Beauty of the World created by God. Respectively, Language of Culture cannot be completely brought into accord with the logic of Pure Reason on a sample of language of mathematical logic recognized as exact, it is not settled by strictly established reasonable laws and logical-grammatical rules. Its understanding is based on word aesthetics. The aesthetics of a word and language interprets Language as a vital creative element, constantly mobile and changeable where rational and irrational harmony is reached, conscious and unconscious, in dynamics of which Reason and Heart appear interfaced and make an equal contribution involving in all manifestations of the human.
