Abstract :
Recent developments in neural and cognitive sciences resulted in appreciation of emotions as inseparable part of intelligence. Emotions evaluate conceptual contents of cognition for instinctual satisfactions. This paper describes aesthetic emotions related to the knowledge instinct. It analyzes the role of emotions in language, develops a hypothesis that aesthetic emotions integrate cognition and language within a wholeness of psyche, and discusses possible brain mechanisms.
