Zamenhof, Jews, and the Making of Esperanto

I would love to attend this program, but it's a bit of a schlep from 
north Jersey.

The Spring 2009 issue of Pakn Treger, published by the National 
Yiddish Book Center, in Amherst, MA, has listed the following in its calendar:

Sunday, October 25th - Talk
The Universal Language: Zamenhof, Jews and the Making of Esperanto
Esther Schor, author, poet, and professor of English at Princeton 
University explores the Esperanto movement, invented by L.L. 
Zemenhof, in 1887, as a modern, emancipated Jew's answer to an 
ancient quandary; how might language itself be used to promote 
understanding among nations and peoples?

2:00 p.m. Cost: $6
