Esperanto: L. L. Zamenhof’s Hopeful Language for Russia’s Jews & the World Brigid O’Keeffe Associate Professor of History, Brooklyn College In 1887, L. L. Zamenhof launched Esperanto from the polyglot western borderlands of a tsarist empire in crisis. This presentation will explore Esperanto’s origins in the tsarist empire’s Pale of Settlement. Zamenhof came of age in an era of both global transformation and the pogroms that devastated Jewish communities in the Pale. As he wrestled with the Jewish Question, Zamenhof designed Esperanto as a universal language that would uplift Russia’s Jews and ultimately unite the whole world. Zamenhof intended for Esperanto to serve humanity as more than a practical utility to facilitate international communication. Esperanto was the foundation for what Zamenhof envisioned as a future global moral community of new, emancipated people – comfortable with their differences and equipped with an international auxiliary language designed explicitly to transcend those differences rather than efface them. -
