"The Frontiers of Language and Nationality in Europe" explores the intricate relationship between language, national identity, and political geography in early 20th-century Europe.

Dominian offers insights into the challenges and complexities of defining nationality based on linguistic criteria. This work provides valuable historical context for understanding the enduring significance of language in shaping European identities and geopolitical landscapes, making it essential reading for scholars and anyone interested in the history of nationalism, linguistics, and European studies.
