摘要 十九世纪，欧洲人对定位和绘制语言边界的想法着迷。语言障碍提供了一种根据文化差异来看待、划分和组织欧洲土地的新方式。欧洲人发明的绘制语言边界的制图技术结合了语言调查、现场观察以及与当地人的合作。语言地图一经印刷，便拥有了广泛的公众受众，并有助于引发有关欧洲边境地区文化认同的辩论。本文探讨了法德边境语言地图绘制背后的民族主义和地区主义动机，这是现代欧洲历史上最具争议的地区之一。
ABSTRACT During the nineteenth century, Europeans became fascinated with the idea of locating and mapping the borders between their languages. The barrier of language offered a new way of seeing, dividing and organizing European land according to cultural differences. The cartographic techniques that Europeans invented to map their language borders involved a combination of linguistic surveys, on-site observations and collaboration with locals. Once printed, language maps found a broad public audience and helped to structure debates over cultural identity in European borderlands. This article explores the nationalist and regionalist motivations behind linguistic map making along the French-German border, one of the most disputed in modern European history.
