Students from Brunswick School and Greenwich Academy have come together to create the second volume of
Babel, a multi-lingual e-magazine featuring art, music, poetry, and prose in as many as 10 different languages.
The innovative e-magazine includes original work from dozens of students in the languages of Arabic, Armenian, Bengali, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Latin, and Spanish.
In the words of Editor-in-chief Yousef Hindy ’15, “The Tower of Babel stood as the symbol of what man could achieve with a single language. According to the Bible, God scrambled the tongues of man so that we would not be able to communicate with each other.
“After scattering them all over the earth, man never reached the potential they once had.
Babel hopes to break down those barriers in search of a greater truth, one that can only be found through the consideration of all languages and cultures.”
