Everything Everywhere Daily - Esperanto and the Search for a Global Language

Subscribe to the podcast! 

https://podfollow.com/everythingeverywhere/


Around 1887, a Polish ophthalmologist set out to create a universal language. A language that could be a second language for everyone around that world that no one country or one people would control. 


It was a good idea, but things didn’t quite pan out as he had hoped, and along the way, there was shockingly violent resistance to the new language. 


Learn more about Esperanto, how it was developed and its status in the world today, on this episode of ĉio ĉie ĉiutage.

NPR's Book of the Day - Maud Newton and Jhumpa Lahiri interrogate one’s place in the world

Writer Maud Newton could not ignore her family's white supremacist history, so she decided to reconcile with it in her new book Ancestor Trouble: A Reckoning and a Reconciliation. She told NPR's Ari Shapiro that she felt a responsibility to deal with her family's past. Next, Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jhumpa Lahiri's book Whereabouts is about a sense of place – even though we are never told where exactly the book takes place. Lahiri told NPR's Mary Louis Kelly that we can be too fixated on who we are and where we are from, so not naming where this novel is set was freeing.
