Produktbeschreibung
"Omnilingual" is a technological know-how fiction short tale written through H. Beam Piper. This compelling narrative is renowned for its recognition on archaeology, linguistics, and the search for information. Set on this planet Mars, the tale revolves across the efforts of a group of scientists and archaeologists to decipher an historic Martian civilization's language. The scientists, led with the aid of Martha Dane, unearth Martian artifacts, consisting of books and inscriptions, from an extended-misplaced Martian town. Their intention is to release the secrets of this historic lifestyle, however they face good sized demanding situations because of the full-size variations among Martian and human languages. As the group painstakingly deciphers the Martian script and documents, they grapple with linguistic puzzles and cultural nuances. Their adventure is a testament to human interest, determination, and the conventional pursuit of expertise. Ultimately, their efforts culminate in a breakthrough that exhibits key aspects of the Martian civilization's history and lifestyle. "Omnilingual" is widely known for its emphasis on the importance of keeping and decoding historical languages and the understanding they keep. H. Beam Piper's tale highlights the cost of archaeology and linguistics in uncovering the mysteries of lost civilizations. It also underscores the idea that medical curiosity is a general trait that transcends time and area.

Autorenporträt
American science fiction author Henry Beam Piper lived from March 23, 1904, through November 6, 1964. His lengthy Terro-Human Future History trilogy and a more condensed collection of "Paratime" alternate history novellas are his most well-known works. His name is listed as "Horace Beam Piper" in another source, along with a different death date. "Henry Beam Piper," it states on his tombstone. Piper may have contributed to some of the confusion when he stated that the H stood for Horace, leading some to believe that he did it because he disliked his name. The majority of Piper's education came through self-learning; he did not "submit myself to the absurd pain of four years in the unpleasant constraints of a raccoon coat" in order to learn science and history. He started working as a worker at the Pennsylvania Railroad's Altoona yards in Pennsylvania when he was 18 years old. He also worked for the railroad as a night watchman. When Piper's career appeared to be in trouble in 1964, he killed himself because he was afraid to ask for help and because he adhered to libertarian principles. The last entry in his diary was dated November 5, and his Pennsylvania death certificate states that his body was discovered on November 8. The precise date of his passing is unknown.
