EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history when language barriers were being broken down by none other than M. Berlitz himself. In 1907, this iconic image shows M. Berlitz instructing Paris police officers in English, German, Italian, and Spanish so that they could effectively communicate with tourists from around the world.
The scene is both fascinating and humorous as the stern-looking policemen appear to be receiving a crash course in multiple languages, ensuring they can do more than just shrug their shoulders when faced with questions from international visitors. It's a reminder of the importance of effective communication in bridging cultural divides and creating a welcoming environment for all.
As M. Berlitz imparts his knowledge to these dedicated officers, one can't help but imagine the countless interactions that would have been made easier thanks to their newfound linguistic skills. From providing directions to recommending local attractions, these multilingual policemen were undoubtedly better equipped to assist tourists navigate the bustling streets of Paris.
This historical snapshot serves as a testament to the power of language and education in fostering understanding and connection between people from different backgrounds. And while it may have been over a century ago, the message remains relevant today: communication is key in building bridges between individuals and communities worldwide.
