  • Esperanto, Civility, and the Politics of Fellowship: A
    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.

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.

    Esperanto en Azio kaj Oceanio n-ro 107, Aprilo 2020 Bulteno de KAOEM Azia-Oceania Komisiono de UEA pri Azia-Oceania Esperanto-Movado "Sociala distanco" nun nepre teninda tamen ne difektu solidarecon de homoj! 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. (Kaŭa) daŭrigota al la paĝo 23 ☛ La redakcio petas permeson de la abonantoj rilate al nia decido, ke ĝis videbla trankviliĝo de la pandemio ni ne presos nek sendos surpaperan (nigrablankan) eldonon de "E. en Azio kaj Oceanio" al la kontribuintoj/abonantoj, ĉefe ĉar ni volas eviti kunvenon por la ekspedo, kaj ankaŭ ĉar intertempe fermita estas la domo (ne la tuta oficeja funkcio) de Japana Esperanto-Instituto, kie niaj helpantoj laboras. Do karaj abonantoj, kiel ni retpoŝte petis, bonvolu legi retan (koloran) eldonon, elŝutinte el la retejo de KAOEM: http://www.esperantoazia.net/index.php?mid=bulteno Detale pri abono de nia bulteno (kontribuo al KAOEM) ni denove certigos kaj anoncos en la sekvanta numero.

    SATURDAY, MAY 9, 2020 Gisborne’s former Cook Hospital, where Marshall Hyland and other polio patients spent several weeks of their lives being Polio epidemic treated for the disease in a dedicated hospital ward, like those typical of others throughout the country. remembered Gisborne Herald fi le photo At 72, Marshall Hyland still remembers the exact date and what he was doing when, as an eight-year-old growing up in Gisborne, he suddenly fell ill with polio. e memory of it is etched on his mind, he says. Marshall had bulbar paralytic poliomyelitis — the most severe of three types of polio. He revisits the experience, for our readers, from his Whakatane home during the Covid-19 lockdown. It was Friday night, the fourth of etched in my mind. e polio ward was in window and, lo and behold, it was my father because they were like little Gods then.

  • Queen's University, Belfast the EU and the Irish Language: Identity And
    Queen’s University, Belfast SYMPOSIUM: Language and Politics 23-25 August 2001 The EU and the Irish Language: Identity and Linguistic Diversity 1 Seán Ó Riain This article expresses the personal view of the author. 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. Ach ní fada gur thuas faoi deara nárbh iann an blas a faigheann a lán páistí eile ar fhoghlaim a Gaeilge, agus gur ró-mhinic gur crá croí an tairbhe leo í. Caitheas a blianta ag iarraidh teacht ar leigheas na faidhbe seo, agus is dóigh liom gur éirigh liom, in áit ach mbeifeá ag súil lena leithéid. Sin í ábar na cainte seo, ach sula bpléifead leis sin, ba mhaith liom an t-ábar a shuíomh sa chomhthéacs Eorpach is gá, ar liom. [I remember as a child when my father told me that his grandfather was a ative Irish speaker who died in 1934 aged 87.
