Official synopsis Publisher
Esperanto is the international language of peace. It does not belong to any one country so it is free from all connotations of power or colonialism. Esperanto for Hope is both an introduction to the history of the international planned language and a primer in Esperanto itself. By the time you are half-way through the book, you may expect to be able to read everyday Esperanto and you will have laid the foundations for a more detailed study of the language. In this lively and engaging work Maire Mullarney, skilled Esperantist and linguist, charts the his- tory of her own involvement with the interna- tional Esperanto movement and points the way forward for any individual to master a foreign language that can be spoken with accuracy, confi- dence and creativity and understood the whole world over.
