  • Juxtaposition and Improvement in Retranslating “Romeo and Juliet” Into Albanian to Be Downloaded from Commentary 2 in LCPJ
    Kadija, Refik 2014: Juxtaposition and Improvement in Retranslating “Romeo and Juliet” into Albanian To be downloaded from www.lcpj.pro Commentary 2 in LCPJ Juxtaposition and Improvement in Retranslating “Romeo and Juliet” into Albanian [Paper submitted at the International Symposium “Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet in European Culture” held at the University of Murcia (Spain) from 19 to 21 November 2014.] The tragedy “Romeo and Juliet” was first translated into Albanian some sixty years ago by Alqi Kristo. Until October 2014 it was the only translation of “Romeo and Juliet” that existed in Albanian. Although Kristo was not an English graduate and was basically self-taught in English, this first translation has certainly undeniable merits. The Albanian text was used for reading by the university students for several decades. It was used as the basic text for the production of this tragedy on stage. It was first produced in 1964 by the students of the Drama School of the Academy of Arts in Tirana. It was then produced in March 2011 by Teatri Metropolitan “Shekspir” in Tirana. This first translation was published several times in separate and collected editions in Albania and Kosova (Kosovo). Reassessment of Shakespeare’s Works in Albania I started the retranslation of the tragedy “Romeo and Juliet” into Albanian in January 2014 and finished it on July 5th 2014. This second Albanian translation of “Romeo and Juliet” was published in October 2014. The retranslation of the tragedy “Romeo and Juliet” was undertaken for several reasons: Volume 7/2, 2014 79 © LCPJ Publishing Kadija, Refik 2014: Juxtaposition and Improvement in Retranslating “Romeo and Juliet” into Albanian To be downloaded from www.lcpj.pro • I have been teaching English Literature for more than forty-five years at Albanian universities.

Guillaume Bonnet and Benjamin Fagard Complex Prepositions in Albanian: a first assessment Abstract In this chapter, we investigate the marking of nominal relations in Albanian, from case marking to simple and complex prepositions, on the basis of the (limited) literature and of a corpus study. We rely on two corpora, the Albanian National Corpus (ANC) and the parallel corpus OPUS, totaling 20 and 46 million words respectively. This enables us to provide frequency lists and distributional features of simple and complex prepositions, making it possible to account for the formal and functional differences between different types of simple and complex adpositions. We also address the question of the possible origin of CAs in Albanian, showing a possible effect of language contact.

    The Role and Importance of Translation for the Albanian Culture La función y la importancia de la traducción para la cultura albanesa ARBEN SHALA Charles University, Faculty of Arts, nám. Jana Palacha 1/2, 116 38 Staré Město, Czechia. Dirección de correo electrónico: [email protected] ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0495-7884 Recibido: 17/10/2020. Aceptado: 15/9/2020. Cómo citar: Shala, Arben, «The Role and Importance of Translation for the Albanian Culture», Hermēneus. Revista de Traducción e Interpretación, 22 (2020): 383-413. DOI: https://doi.org/10.24197/her.22.2020.383-413 Abstract: This paper outlines the importance of translation activity for the Albanian culture beginning from the earliest period, as a driving force and forerunner of the Albanian National Awakening and identity, to the latest developments related to the quantity of translations, as well as their quality, peacebuilding in Kosovo and the use of translation for subversive propaganda. Translation, along with religion and masterpieces of world literature, brought different alphabetic scripts, many foreign words and, despite the adversarial approach by the Church and ruling authorities, contributed to the codification efforts, language purification and the coining of new words. Common expressions and folklore were collected and found their way into translated texts, now serving as grounds to call for retranslation. Keywords: Translation, national awareness, folklore, standardisation, tolerance. Resumen: Este artículo trata de describir la importancia de la actividad de traducción para la cultura albanesa desde el primer período, como fuerza impulsora y precursora del despertar nacional y la identidad albanesa, hasta los últimos desarrollos relacionados con la calidad y cantidad de la traducción, la construcción de la paz en Kosovo y el uso de la traducción como propaganda subversiva.

  • Genesis of Turkish Nationalism
    GENESIS OF TURKISH NATIONALISM M. VEDAT GÜRBÜZ* As a political thought, nationalism was inu-oduced to the Ottoman Turks and gained acceptance much latter than it did among the Ottoman non-Muslim nationalities. Turkish nationalism was the last link of the Ottoman Empire's reconstruction and Westernization movement chains. When the Ottoman Empire was trying to modernize its institutions, at the same time, it was trying to protect its unity. Pan-Ottomanism and pan- Islamism were, respectively, the Empire's political initiatives designed to maintain unity. Pan-Ottomanism was weakened by pan-Islamism, then, pan- Ottomanism entirely disappeared during the Balkan Wars. Turkish nationalist thought developed as a part of modernization and Westernization ideologies, then, it became an independent political ideology. Until the Balkan Wars, nationalist thought was very weak among the Turkish intelligentsia, and it was not clearly defended. In those years, there were few publications about Turkish nationalism. The most famous Turkish nationalist, Ziya Gökalp produced his important works after 1911. Yusuf Akçura's article, "Üç Tarz-1 Siyaset," which was published in an infamous newspaper in Cairo in 1904, was republished and gained publicity after 1911. MODERNIZATION AND WESTERNIZATION IN THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries the Ottoman Empire examined numerous reconstruction plans, but the results were not good enough to stop the Empire's decline. In the Ottoman Empire, renovations were introduced from the top, unlike in Europe, where reforms were demanded from the bottom. In the Ottoman Empire almost every reform aimed to strengthen the army but as was customary, the army rebelled against the reforms.

PH.D., "Aleksander Moisiu" University, Durres, Albania Lindita Lutaj PH.D., "Aleksander Moisiu" University, Durres, Albania DOI: https://doi.org/10.36941/ajis-2021-0066 Abstract This paper is dedicated to the education policies of Italy for the expansion and consolidation of Italian schools in Albania, from the point of view of archival documents and the Albanian press at that time. The study focuses primarily on the efforts of the Italian government to organize the education system, establish schools, prepare programs and textbooks, equip schools with the necessary acts, etc., as an attempt to outline the European profile of education in Albania after 1912. As a part of the general analysis on the effects of the Italian schools on the life of Albanian society, would undoubtedly be the analysis of the "individual" type that it produced. On the one hand, the changes after the World War I generated a complex, renewed and more productive national education, but on the other hand, it was highly dependent on the Italian-Albanian education policies, and consequently, oriented towards a more open education system which promoted the cultural tendencies and aspirations of the Albanian nation.

  • Performance Analysis of B2B and B2C Companies: a Case Study of Selected Balkan Countries
    Periodicals of Engineering and Natural Sciences ISSN 2303-4521 Vol. 9, No. 2, June 2021, pp.441-453 Performance analysis of B2B and B2C companies: A case study of selected Balkan countries Vedat Asipi 1, Benjamin Duraković 2 1, 2 Industrial Engineering, International University of Sarajevo ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to analyze and compare two different business models called business to business and business to consumer in Western Balkan countries and Bulgaria. The first, model - business to business (B2B) is defined as the transfer of goods and services between businesses or firms without interference of consumer. The second model, business to consumer (B2C) is customer oriented in which the goods and services are sold immediately to customers in the market. This study focuses on the performance of these two business models in regional countries which are: Albania, Bulgaria, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Serbia. Our analysis intends to provide information regarding the countries’ development on different sectors within B2B and B2C models that are affected by specific indicators such as net salaries, total employment level, investment and exports, and research & innovation. Using statistical methods such as t-test, z-test, F- test or ANOVA and regression, the data were analyzed and the results were compared among the listed developing countries. Finally, this dissection represents the relationship between two independent variables, Net Salaries and Employment where specific dependent variables significantly contribute in North
