Far Out Recordings present a second album from Victor Assis Brasil from the treasure trove of the Quartin Records catalog, Esperanto, originally released in 1976.

The problems of international communication and linguistic rights are recurring debates in the present-day age of globalization. But the debate truly began over a hundred years ago, when the increasingly interconnected world of the nineteenth century fostered a desire for the development of a global lingua franca. Many individuals and social movements competed to create an artificial language unencumbered by the political rivalries that accompanied English, German, and French. Organizations including the American Philosophical Society, the International Association of Academies, the International Peace Bureau, the Comintern, and the League of Nations intervened in the debate about the possibility of an artificial language, but of the numerous tongues created before World War II, only Esperanto survives today.Esperanto and Its Rivals sheds light on the factors that led almost all artificial languages to fail and helped English to prevail as the global tongue of the twenty-first century. Exploring the social and political contexts of the three most prominent artificial languages—Volapük, Esperanto, and Ido—Roberto Garvía examines the roles played by social movement leaders and inventors, the strategies different organizations used to lobby for each language, and other early decisions that shaped how those languages spread and evolved. Through the rise and fall of these artificial languages, Esperanto and Its Rivals reveals the intellectual dilemmas and political anxieties that troubled the globalizing world at the turn of the twentieth century.

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. This article attempts to highlight the main differences between Esperanto and Ido , two constructed languages that have a related past but have since parted ways. Ido was invented in the early 20th century after a schism between those who believed that Esperanto was almost good enough, were it not for inherent features seen by them as flaws that prevented it from being a suitable proposal of international auxiliary language, and those who believed that Esperanto was sufficient as it was, and that endless tinkering with a language would only weaken it in the end.

An introduction to the language in 15 lessons. Helpful appendices include a list of national and international addresses for Esperanto organizations and sample letters, examples of word building, and a list of prepositions and affixes.

Designed as a reference work for English-speaking people who have already completed a beginning-level Esperanto text or course, this work includes answers to questions rarely treated in elementary texts. It addresses variations in usage, common mistakes, evolving tastes, levels of style, and other features of contemporary Esperanto as it is actually spoken. The first half is a reference grammer, the second an alphabetical list of individual words and expressions likely to trip up the English learner. Both halves contain extensive examples, and always with English translations. Light-hearted tone and occasionally very funny examples invite casual reading of the book in addition to its role as a reference work. This edition also has a convenient index.
