A little over a month ago, Mr. Julian E. Fast, Councilor of the Ohio Valley Division, Delphos, Ohio, and a member of the Board of Education in that city, wrote the Central Office as follows: “I am in need of assistance. Our Board of Education has given unanimous consent that Esperanto be placed in the course of study for the Eighth Grades next year. The condition is that the consent and support of the Superintendent be secured. I believe the consent of the Supt. could be secured on account of our warm personal friendship. I know the resolution would be passed without his con­ sent, should I care to push it, but we want his hearty support and cooperation if we want the movement to be a success. Profs. Laudick and Gibson, teachers of the Eighth Grades and principals of their respective buildings, are both ardent Esperantists, and about ready for the final exam. I have every confidence to believe they can make it a success, if they have the backing of Mr. Matteson. .” Mr. Fast also wrote Dr. Ivy Kellerman-Reed, and Dr. D. O. S. Lowell of the situation, asking them to present their views to Supt. Matteson, regarding the advantages and desirability of Esperanto. The Central Office wrote Prof. Matteson officially, and sent the mes­ sage immediately to some of the educators among our Esperantist ranks, including Mr. J. D. Hailman, President, E. A. N. A., Herbert Harris, Chairman Examinations, Judge W. R. Daingerfield, Mr. B. E. Myers, and Prof. H. W. Hetzel. We have just received the following from Mr. Fast: ‘T am more than pleased to report that we have won. Supt. Mat­ teson has just notified me that he has decided to put Esperanto into the course of study for the Eighth Grades next year. You can hardly blame the Delphos samideanoj for being a little jubilant, can you? However we fully realize that the success of the campaign is largely due to the enthusiastic support and assistance of our friends on the outside. As Supt. Matteson put it: ‘You Esperantists certainly are an enthusiastic bunch.’ Enthusiasm is all right when accompanied by such team work as we had in this case. Thru you and A. E. we wish to express our appreciation of the loyal support given us by our friends on the outside.” And it was teamwork that did it,—teamwork in Delphos where for some years has existed one of the most loyal and hard-working groups of Esperantists that could be found anywhere in the world,— and teamwork in the ranks of E. A. N. A. The Delphos group since its organization has worked as a unit with the Central Office. It has been comprised for the most part of teachers and educators in the city, and under the guidance of Mr. Fast its members have become pro­ ficient Esperantists. When the time was ripe, the Delphos members, knew where to turn for their outside assistance,—to the Central Office,, which could officially place a finger on those of its members thruout the country who could be best adapted to the exigencies of the mo­ ment. The results are shown,—reason TEAMWORK,—locally, di­ visionally and nationally. Congratulations to Mr. Fast and the Delphos Esperantists. They will hold the advantage gained, they know how,—by teamwork!

Definition The international language Esperanto is an auxiliary language that was con- ceived and developed for international communication. Of around 1,000 known plans for auxiliary languages, Esperanto alone has proved its worth in over 100 years of practical use. In July 1887 the young Jewish ophthalmologist Lazarus Ludwig Zamenhof (1859–1917) published his textbook with exercises for the “Internacia Lingvo” in Warsaw under the pseudonym “Dr Esperanto” and under the vigilant eye of distrustful tsarist censors. The book was in Russian and was followed that same year by editions in Polish, French and German.In Zamenhof’s “International Language” Esperanto means “one who hopes”, and Zamenhof hoped that by creat- ing the international language he would contribute to the cause of international understanding and world peace. The word Esperanto soon became the name of the language. Esperanto is relatively easy to learn due to its regularity and flexibility. It has phonemic orthography, i.e. a one-to-one relationship between writing and pronunciation. Its spelling is regular. Its grammar is almost free of exceptions; versatile prefixes and suffixes contribute to the language’s high precision and expressiveness. Its vocabulary consists primarily of Romanic and Germanic roots that are widespread in many languages.

    ESPERANTO, CIVILITY, AND THE POLITICS OF FELLOWSHIP: A COSMOPOLITAN MOVEMENT FROM THE EASTERN EUROPEAN PERIPHERY A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Notre Dame in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Ana Velitchkova Omar Lizardo, Director Graduate Program in Peace Studies and Sociology Notre Dame, Indiana July 2014 © Copyright by ANA MILENOVA VELITCHKOVA 2014 All rights reserved ESPERANTO, CIVILITY, AND THE POLITICS OF FELLOWSHIP: A COSMOPOLITAN MOVEMENT FROM THE EASTERN EUROPEAN PERIPHERY Abstract by Ana Velitchkova This dissertation examines global, regional, state-, group-, and person-level processes involved in the growth of the movement formed around the constructed international language Esperanto. The Esperanto movement emerged in the global arena in the late nineteenth century as a response to inequalities in the nation-state field. In the course of several decades, the movement established a new global field based on the logic of equal communication through Esperanto and on the accumulation of cultural capital. While the field gained autonomy from the nation-state field, it has not been recognized as its equal. Persons endowed with cultural capital but lacking political and economic capital have been particularly drawn to Esperanto. Ironically, while attempting to overcome established unfair distinctions based on differential accumulation of political and economic capital, the Esperanto movement creates and maintains new distinctions and inequalities based on cultural capital accumulation. Ana Velitchkova At the regional level, the Esperanto movement became prominent in state- socialist Eastern Europe in the second half of the twentieth century. The movement found unexpected allies among independent states in the Eastern European periphery.

  • The International Language Esperanto a Course Ĉi Tiu Kurso Estis Adaptita El La Iama 10-Leciona Esperanto-Kurso Aǔ Free Esperanto Course
    The International Language Esperanto A Course Ĉi tiu kurso estis adaptita el la iama 10-leciona Esperanto-kurso aǔ Free Esperanto Course. La materialo estis rearanĝata, por ke ĝi funkciu kaj rete kaj por poŝta, papera koresponda kurso kaj kiel kurso-libro en ĉeestaj kursoj. Grafike ĝin prilaboris Nino Vessella, Harnyos Ferenc kaj João Vicente. Kunordigis Renato Corsetti. Introduction WHAT IS ESPERANTO? Esperanto, the international language, is a language developed to make it easier for people of different cultures to communicate. Its author, Dr. L. L. Zamenhof (1859-1917), published his "Lingvo Internacia" in 1887 under the pseudonym "Dr. Esperanto". It is now spoken by at least two million people, in over 100 countries. There are thousands of books and over 100 periodicals published currently. But what makes it any more international than French, English or Russian? Incorrectly termed ’artificial’ (the right word is ’planned’), Esperanto is specifically intended for international/intercultural use, so those who use it meet each other on an equal footing, since neither is using his or her native language. With national languages, the average person isn’t able to express himself as well as a native speaker or the gifted linguist. Thanks to its simple, logical, regular design, anyone can learn Esperanto fairly rapidly. A LIVING LANGUAGE Esperanto is a living language, used for everything people use any other language for. But it’s much easier to learn than a national language. Even people who can’t remember a word of a language they studied for years in high school or college need only months of intensive study to become fluent in Esperanto.

V. Humbolt, A. Shleykher, H. Shteyntal, G. Paul, and other linguists put forward various considerations about the language. Language is creative and productive by nature, a person using it can set up an infinite number of sentences and express thoughts. Throughout history, numerous languages seriously impeeded the development of relations between people. People have searched ways for getting out of this problem. As a result, the idea of creating a universal world language has occurred. Universal world language refers to a language which can be easily understood by all individuals of different nations. As a way of solving this problem, linguists have proposed to create a substituting constructed language. The most common constructed language is Esperanto. This language posses simple phonetic, grammatical, lexical structure. The language created by Zamenhof can be studied and remembered easily. According to historical facts, Esperantists (Esperanto-language speakers) established a country called Amikejo. They even celebrate The World Esperanto Day as a holiday once a year. Key words: linguists, universal world language, constructed language, Esperanto, Zamenhof, Esperantist, Amikejo 1.

KAWAMOTO Hiromi (redaktoro) Pri la novtipa koronviruso multaj avertas, ke la epidemia kaj ekonomia damaĝo eble pligrandiĝos ĝis la nivelo kiun la homaro iam ne spertis, se ni ne faros solidare "militi" kontraŭ la viruso. Kaj la rimedo por la kunlaborado estas eĉ mala de nia kutima imago; ni devas ne kunveni manenmane, sed fizike distanci de aliaj homoj kaj izoliĝi restante hejme, kiel facile klarigas infektadon ekzemple la artikolo de "Washington Post": https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2020/world/corona-simulator/ Kaj kompreneble ankaŭ esperantistoj senescepte aliĝu al la solidareco. Esperanto devas esti peranto de egaleco kaj paco, sed ne de viruso. Eĉ restante hejme ni povas rete interligiĝi kaj interŝanĝi informojn kaj opiniojn. Kvankam hejme katenita vivo certe nin turmenti povas, tamen ĉie nepre troveblas vojo, nur se de ni ne perdiĝas ĝojo. Kaj la verdaj vortoj venu al mi mem, se la situacio draste plimalfaciliĝos ĉe mi.

  • TEKA: a Transnational Network of Esperanto-Speaking Physicians Marcel Koschek University of St Andrews [email protected]
    Hungarian Historical Review 10, no. 2 (2021): 243–266 TEKA: A Transnational Network of Esperanto-Speaking Physicians Marcel Koschek University of St Andrews [email protected] The Tutmonda Esperanta Kuracista Asocio (Worldwide Esperanto Medical Association, TEKA) was founded in 1908 at the Fourth International Esperanto Congress in Dresden and was the international medical association of the Esperanto movement. The aim was to “facilitate practical relations between Esperanto-speaking doctors of all countries.” The interest within the Esperanto movement was immense: after one year, TEKA had more than 400 members all over the world with a focus on Europe; one year later, there were more than 600 members with official representatives in about 100 cities. In Europe, a medical press in Esperanto had already been established. The approach of these journals was both simple and brilliant: the doctors presented the latest medical findings from their home countries in a peer review system and critically examined the articles in their vernacular. This made each issue a compendium of the most important and pioneering findings of national research. The numerous experts also had many other connections with, for example, the Red Cross and similar organizations. Thus, after a short period of time, TEKA brought together the expertise of countless physicians. This paper examines TEKA as a transnational network of experts before World War I. The history of the association and the role of Medicine within the Esperanto movement are briefly discussed. The focus is then on the various association journals and the circulation of knowledge. Finally, the essay offers a look at TEKA’s cooperative endeavors with the Red Cross.

Is cuimhin liom agus mé i mo pháiste go ndúirt m’athair liom tráth gur cainteoir dúchais Gaeilge a sheaathair féin, a fair bás sa bhliain 1934 in aois a 87 mbliaa dó. Is minic, mar sin, a chala m’atair an teanga á labhairt ina óige, cé gur beag tuiscint uirthi a thóg sé leis. Ach fanfaidh go deo i m’aigne an méid a dúirt sé liomsa faoin nGaeilge: “It was a beautiful lanage. Pity we lost it.” Níorbh amhlaidh domsa, toisc an Gaeilge a bheith go líofa ag mo mhátair agus nár leasc léi a heolas a roinnt linn. Cúis aoibhnis domsa i gcóaí ab ea mo chuid eolais ar ach gné den Ghaeilge a dhoimhniú.

For me, it was a mission to choose an unfamiliar topic. This way I would be able to teach myself something foreign and spread the new knowledge. After the reflection of several options, I have chosen for the artificial and almost forgotten language Esperanto. Having decided on Esperanto as my theme, I was full of excitement to start writing about one of my interests, languages. In that way, it would be feasible for me to learn new things that could enrich my knowledge and could help me in the development of some new perspectives. My study selection has contributed to the choice of writing in English. Next year, I am willing to study applied languages English-Chinese. Therefore I see this as the excellent opportunity to refine my English. All of this would not have been possible without the help of Mr. Ives Delporte. He has given me a lot of advice about the language and the content of my work. My mentor, Mrs. Ulrike Houwenhuyse, on the other hand, has been able to assist me with the structural layout in order to handle a neat style. The next one I would like to thank is Mr. Cyreen Marcel Knockaert. As a board member of the Flemish Federation of Esperanto, voluntary librarian of the Flemish Federation of Esperanto and voluntary contributor of the Library of Heritage from Hendrik Conscience, he has taken his time to formulate an elaborate answer to all my questions.
