The Planeteer by Homer Eon Flint:
Science Fiction Inventions, Technology and Ideas
"TO THE PEOPLE OF CONSERVE ISLAND, Greeting:
The Editors wish to congratulate you upon having decided to learn what the rest of the world is doing. We hope that this book will be of help, and have taken
unusual pains with the following rather free translation. However, we do not intend
to thereby reflect upon your ancestors’ action in completely isolating themselves at
the time of the Great Change; we wish merely to urge that you master the world's
language as quickly as possible. It is now two hundred years since Universe replaced all others, including your "English."
THE UNIVERSITY OF DEAD LANGUAGES

('The Planeteer' by Homer Eon Flint)
