Abstract
The Danubian Review (1933-1944) was an English-language Hungarian periodical that argued for the peaceful revision of the Treaty of Trianon (1920), which had drastically reduced the size and population of Hungary after the First World War. The journal’s intended audience was a broad collection of British academics and statesmen sympathetic to the Hungarian belief in the injustice of the peace terms dictated to Hungary at Trianon. The Danubian Review conjured the specter of Bolshevism, related tales of exploitation and abuse of ethnic minorities in the new states of central and eastern Europe, drew parallels—both empirical and imagined—between their country and Great Britain, and put forth an image of themselves as progressive, hard-working rebuilders of a shattered Danubian basin.
