These are the first appearances of Esperanto in the Munsey magazines.

Subsequently Lowell published another article in a sister Munsey magazine:

Lowell, D(aniel) O(zro) S(mith) (1851-1928). “Esperanto, the Wonderful New Language,” The Munsey Magazine, vol. 38, no. 3, December 1907, pp. 325-327.

Lowell later produced five translations for a short-lived experiment in The Cavalier, which paired English originals with Lowell’s translations. For links to all the English originals and Esperanto translations and more information, see:
