LANGUAGE AS HOPE

Ludwig Lejzer Zamenhof (1859-1917) was not the only one promoting the idea of a constructed
language in his time. Numerous efforts - drawing inspiration from different sources - have
shown a strong desire during the late 19th and early 20th century to create a mode of
communication carried by universal humanitarianism. Esperanto  however  is unique in its
influence. The articles collected in this volume debate the question of the extent to which
this unique potential can be attributed to Jewish  cosmopolitan and pacifist traditions of
thought.  All contributions have resulted from the lectures of the international workshop "The
heritage and legacy of Ludwik Lejzer Zamenhof between Judaism and Esperanto"  that took place
in the Museum Polin - Museum of the History of Polish Jews in Warsaw.
