Summary/Abstract: The paper presents a detailed analysis of one of the most important program texts, written by Dimitrije Mitrinović, specifically, about futuristic manifesto - “Aesthetic contemplations (About criticism which does’t exist or Defense Rebuilding)”. The style is analyzed, also, basic ideas and principles, which the author proclaimed in his program, and some theses were compared with other important papers, by this avant-garde writer, critic, philosopher, essayist and translator. These are, in fact, papers, named “The problems of aesthetics”, “The national land and Modernity”, and “The democratization of science and philosophy”. Also, it is pointed to the importance of ancient traditions for poetics and rhetoric in this program, and the importance of the “pletenije sloves” as an example for the style of “old practices”, that “the new practices” should take as the value for the future. This program, therefore, actually is a manifesto of “theory of value”, written by Dimitrije Mitrinović, which is reflected in the equating terms - ethics and aesthetics, therefore, they can be written in the following way – Aestet(h)ics. This “philosophy of values” would be a futuristic “wisdom of creation”, or, in other words, “great work”, in the point of view by this, for Serbian culture - important thinker.
