How English evolved into a global language

As the British Library charts the evolution of
English in a new major exhibition, author Michael
Rosen gives a brief history of a language that has
grown to world domination with phrases such as
"cool" and "go to it".

The need for an international language has
always existed. In the past it was about religion and
intellectual debate. With the technologies of today, it's
about communicating with others anywhere in the
world in a matter of moments.

Two events, separated by nearly 400 years,
show how this need has always been present.

Firstly, sitting in front of me I have a copy of
the celebrated book Utopia, by Sir Thomas More.
This particular edition is published in 1629 in
Amsterdam, not in English, not in Dutch, but in Latin.

The second event was a talk I recently had
with a German scientist. He said that he knew of
scientific conferences taking place in Germany, where
all the people attending were German and yet the
conference was conducted in English.
