Somewhat difficult to read. Produced by David G. Simpson "Vivo de Zamenhof" by Edmond Privat is a biographical account written in the early 20th century. The book centers around the life and philosophy of Ludoviko Zamenhof, the creator of the international language Esperanto. It explores Zamenhof's childhood, education, and the difficult socio-political environment he navigated as he developed his ideas for universal communication. At the start of the biography, the author introduces the historical and cultural context of Lithuania, Zamenhof's birthplace, emphasizing the diversity of ethnic groups and their interactions. We learn about Zamenhof's early influences, including his family dynamic, particularly the nurturing relationship with his mother and the intellectual rigor of his father. The opening establishes the backdrop of national strife and identity issues Zamenhof faced, shaping his ideals of fraternity and understanding across different cultures, which would ultimately lead him to conceive Esperanto.
