Literature in Interlingua

The **literature in Interlingua** is the collection of written words in that artificial language.

Gode had an extremely limited conception regarding the possible or desirable fields of use for Interlingua. His legacy consists only of several hundred summaries in Interlingua of scientific articles from the 1950s and 1960s, and two small collections of short stories... without much literary value. The first works written in Interlingua were books for learning the language, such as the *Interlingua-English Dictionary* and *A Brief Grammar of Interlingua for Readers*, both published in 1954. These were accompanied in 1954 by *Interlingua a Prime Vista* and, a year later, by *Interlingua: A Grammar of the International Language*, this time written by Gode and Blair.

Already in 1960, Eric Ahlström began translating and editing booklets of fictional literature in his series *Scriptores scandinave in INTERLINGUA*: *Episodio con perspectiva* (Harald Herdal, 1960); *Un desertor* (Bo Bergman, 1961); and *Le nove vestimentos del imperator* (H.C. Andersen, 1961).

One of the most prolific authors in Interlingua was the Swede Sven Collberg (1919–2003). His first publication in Interlingua, *Alicubi-Alterubi*, was an 18-poem booklet of original poetry. In the same year, he published *Cunate tu es a mi mar*, a book of 100 poems translated from languages all over the world and from poetry ranging from the past up to his own time. Other works by the same author include *Inter le stellas* (1975), *Le prince e altere sonetos* (1977), *Lilios, Robores* (1979), *Prosa* (1980), and *Versos grec* (1987).

In the 1970s, Carolo Salicto published *Volo asymptotic* (1970), a collection of original poems and two translations. *Celestina le gallina del vicina* and *Hannibalo le gallo del vicino* were published in 1971. Seven tales also by H.C. Andersen were translated in 1975. Also in this decade, Alexander Gode published *Un dozena de breve contos* (1975), and Sven Collberg published the translation of the previously mentioned *Inter le stellas*, a work by Casemir Wishlace.

Alexander Gode published *Dece Contos* in 1983.

In the 1990s, one finds many translations such as *Le familia del antiquario* by Carlo Goldoni, translated in 1993, and *Le Albergatrice*, by the same author, translated two years later. Other works translated in this decade include *Contos e historias* by H.C. Andersen (translated in 1995) and *Le pelegrinage de Christiano* by John Bunyan (1994).

Vicente Costalago published the original novella *Juliade* in 2022, followed by *Poemas*, also published in the same year. *Kilglan*, by the same author, was published in 2023.

In issue 46 of Posta Mundi, from March 2025, Eduardo Ortega, also known as Le Canario Interlinguista, published *Sonetto del depression* ("Sonnet of Depression"), where *Ad su prude dama* ("To His Coy Mistress") by Andrew Marvell also appeared, translated by Martin Lavallée, ===
