With high expectations for the development of the Esperantist movement in the US, Zamenhof addressed the attendants of the conference as citizens of \u0026ldquo;the land of liberty\u0026rdquo; and \u0026ldquo;most powerful representatives of the new world\u0026rdquo;. However, the main theme of his speech was the unity of the Esperantist community worldwide. Summing up his ideas, he claims that \u0026ldquo;the international language cannot be other than Esperanto\u0026rdquo; and any possible changes to the language can be made only by Esperantists themselves, by common consent. In 1907 a schism took place in the movement when a delegation of prestigious university professors chose to back an anonymously submitted proposal for a revised version of Esperanto called Ido (meaning \u0026lsquo;offspring\u0026rsquo;). Keeping in mind the failure of an earlier artificial language called Volapük, which suffered constant modification, Zamenhof considered any requests for reforms as betrayal.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp paraeid=\"{c1a60f64-be49-4796-85e2-d98767081d24}{4}\" paraid=\"61\"\u003eCongrestoespraak tijdens de opening van het 6de Wereld-Esperanto-congres in Washington, D.C., 15 augustus 1910\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp paraeid=\"{c1a60f64-be49-4796-85e2-d98767081d24}{10}\" paraid=\"62\"\u003eDit dunne boekje bevat de beroemde toespraak \u0026#39;Land van Vrijheid\u0026#39; die\u0026nbsp;Zamenhof\u0026nbsp;in 1910 gaf op het zesde Esperanto-congres in Washington.\u0026nbsp;Zamenhof\u0026nbsp;had hoge verwachtingen van de ontwikkeling van de\u0026nbsp;esperantistische\u0026nbsp;beweging in de VS, en sprak de aanwezigen van de conferentie aan als burgers van \u0026ldquo;het land van vrijheid\u0026rdquo; en als de \u0026ldquo;machtigste vertegenwoordiger van de nieuwe wereld.\u0026rdquo; Het belangrijkste thema van zijn toespraak was echter de eenheid van de\u0026nbsp;esperantistische\u0026nbsp;gemeenschap wereldwijd. Hij geeft een samenvatting van zijn idee\u0026euml;n en stelt dat \u0026ldquo;de internationale taal geen andere kan zijn dan het Esperanto\u0026rdquo; en dat eventuele wijzigingen in de taal alleen door esperantisten z\u0026eacute;lf, en met algemene instemming, kunnen worden aangebracht. Wanneer in 1907 een delegatie van prestigieuze universiteitsprofessoren er voor koos om een anoniem ingediend voorstel te steunen voor een herziene versie van het Esperanto genaamd Ido, ontstond er een schisma binnen de beweging.\u0026nbsp;Zamenhof\u0026nbsp;hield in gedachten dat een eerdere kunstmatige taal,\u0026nbsp;Volap\u0026uuml;k, gefaald had omdat ze voortdurend werd gewijzigd en hij beschouwde alle verzoeken tot hervormingen dan\u0026nbsp;ook\u0026nbsp; als\u0026nbsp;verraad.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"ru","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"de","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"es","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"el","short_description":"","description":""}],"actors":[]}
