José Passini
and the importance of
Esperanto as
an international language
This week’s editorial, "A
farewell to a good man",
focuses on the life and work
of an extraordinary person,
Euclides Alves de Araújo,
who returned to the
spiritual home on September
6th after 92
years of a fruitful
existence.
One of the highlights of
this edition is the
interview that the young
colleague Waldir Imbroisi,
from Juiz de Fora (MG)
granted to our collaborator
Guaraci de Lima Silveira. In
the interview, he tells us
about the work of the
Spiritist youths, its
challenges and its role in
the Spiritist movement.
Teacher with a Master's
degree in Literary Studies
and Spiritist since 2004,
Imbroisi works with the
Spiritist Municipal Alliance
of Juiz de Fora.
Another highlight of this
edition is the special
article titled "Linguistic
Rights", by Professor
José Passini, from Juiz de
Fora (MG). Divided into two
parts, the article
demonstrates the importance
of Esperanto as a neutral
international language
accessible to all people.
The final part of the
article will be published in
the next issue of this
magazine.
Founded on August 10th,
1948, the Spiritist Center
Gabriel Ferreira, located at
Rua Kaneda, 474 - Vila Maria
in São Paulo (SP), is
celebrating 65 years of
existence, as shown by
Martha Rios Guimarães in a
story that is also a
highlight of this edition.
