Excerpt from Fragments of Political Science on Nationalism and Inter-Nationalism The process of nationalizing the many dialects and jargons had begun in some countries - geographically marked as countries, but wholly unnationalized otherwise - at an earlier time. Dante, singing in the Tuscan dialect, raised it thus to the dignity of the language for all Italy, as later Luther by his own translation of the Bible, made his dialect the German language; and Dante, the greatest poet of his country, which he calls Italia mia oli dolor ostello (the very inn of grief cause torn to pieces and lacking her destined nationality, be came thus the first nationalizer of Italy in the thirteenth and at the beginning of the fourteenth century - five hundred years before Cavour; and now only has Germany made a vigorous movement toward her political nationalization, in which may Heaven bless her leaders' boldest acts.
