This work presents the theory that the linguistic and cultural landscape of Europe (north of the Alps and the Pyrenees) was historically shaped by the interaction of Indo-European speakers of language related to Basque and to Semitic. These influences on the lexicon, grammar, and toponymy of the West Indo-European languages are demonstrated in German and English research papers.

The legacy of émigrés in the British film industry, from the late era of silent film to the immediate post-World War Two period, has been largely neglected in the scholarly literature. Destination London is the first book to redress this imbalance. Focusing on areas such as exile, genre, technological transfer, professional training and education, cross-cultural exchange and representation, it begins by mapping the reasons for this neglect before examining the contributions made by émigré directors, actors, screenwriters, cinematographers, set designers, and composers to the Britis
