Abstract: The text contains an interpretation of two major aspects present in the work of the Italian philosopher, Giambattista Vico: language and poetry, as well as of the connections found between these two. Between language and poetry there is an identity report, valid only for the first people of the humanity, who were thought to be poets, and in fact creators. Poetry is pure creation and not a representation of concepts with denotative purpose. The language pf poetry is nothing more but the first language of man, through which he creates his world.
