The Grammaticas in Babel represent the consolidation of knowledge through the lens of an English perspective. Therefore, while the scholars of Babel believe they are comprehensive, the reality is that these books actually represent their willful ignorance. Their refusal to look beyond the bounds of English as the pinnacle of all languages means that Babel’s scholars lose out on a lot of information and possibilities that those willing to cooperate with others, like Hermes, can find.
