"Projet Pour Perfectioner L'Ortografe Des Langues D'Europe" by Charles Ir n e Castel De Saint-Pierre, originally published in 1730, is a historical treatise advocating for the reform and standardization of orthography across European languages. This work reflects the intellectual currents of the early 18th century, marked by a growing interest in linguistic principles and a desire to improve communication and understanding. Saint-Pierre's project sought to streamline spelling conventions, aiming for greater consistency and ease of learning. This proposal provides valuable insight into the historical development of linguistic thought and the challenges of promoting language reform on a continental scale. It remains relevant for scholars and students interested in the history of linguistics, orthography, and the intellectual history of Europe.
