Summary: "International Language, Past, Present & Future" by Walter John Clark is a comprehensive examination discussing the necessity and practicality of an international auxiliary language, likely written in the early 20th century. The text thoroughly explores the economic, cultural, and political implications of adopting a universal language while presenting Esperanto as a viable solution to promote global communication and understanding. The opening of this work introduces the reader to the concept of an international language, emphasizing two primary inquiries: its desirability and its feasibility. Clark discusses the rising need for a common linguistic framework as global interaction increases, detailing how current multilingual communication is both cumbersome and inefficient. He argues that an artificial but easy-to-learn language like Esperanto could significantly reduce barriers to communication, enhance international cooperation, and facilitate the exchange of ideas. Through a historical overview of previous attempts at universal languages, Clark sets the stage for his advocacy of Esperanto, highlighting its ongoing development and adoption by enthusiasts worldwide.
