Overview

Postlingua explores a profound shift: the slow but certain unraveling of language as humanity's primary interface for thought, connection, and culture. As artificial intelligence grows more adept at interpreting emotion, intention, and context, words-once our sharpest tools-begin to feel like blunt instruments. This book examines a world where communication becomes ambient, encoded, and ephemeral, where ideas are transferred not through grammar but through direct cognitive resonance. Combining philosophical inquiry, cognitive science, and poetic speculation, Postlingua asks what happens when language becomes optional-and what remains when it disappears. Through fictional experiments, real-world linguistic data, and provocative sidebars, the book guides the reader from the dawn of speech to its potential dusk. You'll encounter languages that never had words for ""left"" or ""zero,"" meet neural networks that dream in pure signal, and follow a story told in semi-intelligible fragments of future-speak. At its core, Postlingua is a meditation on what makes us human-and whether language was ever the essence of it at all.
