About this title

Synopsis

This book is an intriguing dive into the historical and philosophical importance of language. The author begins by questioning some of the common definitions of poetry and then proceeds to categorize language into three types: narration, abstraction, and ideality. The last of the three types is where the author finds the most weight and significance for the topic of the book. The author then discusses the intimate connection between poetry and love, as well as the potential language barriers in teaching poetry. The author concludes by theorizing on the evolution of language and its place in the future. Providing thought-provoking insights on the very nature of language, this book is an excellent choice for those interested in linguistics, literature, and poetry's historical and social role.
