However, even in countries which did not recognize a female line of suc- cession, it was not unusual for female regents to be able to reign for a limited period as a substitute for a male ruler. In the subordinate role of mother or wife to the king, too, women were far from powerless and were able to pull strings politically. With the French Revolution of 1789, the absolutist form of government was abol- ished and new political relations estab- lished. These were based on the prin- ciple that the people, not a single ruler, were holders of state power. -

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. -
More and Less Deserving Refugees: Shifting Priorities in Swiss Asylum Policy from the Interwar Era to the Hungarian Refugee Crisis of 1956

Swiss students took to the streets to demonstrate against Soviet repression of the Hungarian uprising. However, the upsurge of public sympathy for the refugees barely covered up recent controversy in Switzerland over asylum policy during the years of fascism and the Second World War. In 1954, only two years before the Hungarian refugee crisis, newly released German foreign policy documents had revealed Swiss involvement in the introduction of the ‘J’-stamp in 1938 to mark the passports of German (and formerly Austrian) Jews, making it easier for Swiss immigration officials to identify Jews as (undesirable) refugees. -
The Peace Conference of Lausanne (1922-1923)
Bern 1923 - 2008 With the kind support of: Mrs Ionna Ertegiin Mrs Selma Goksel Tiirkiye I~ Bankasi Anadolu Ajans1 Thanks to: Onur Ozc;:eri (Research, text and layout) Agathon Aerni (research) Tuluy Tanc;: (editing) © Embassy of Turkey, Bern 85 years of representation of the Republic of Turkey in Switzerland (1923-2008) The Embassy of the Republic of Turkey, Bern ~u6tic offJ'urk,ey rrfie (Jlresufent It is no coincidence that the Republic of Turkey purchased its first Embassy premises abroad, in Switzerland's capital, Bern, to establish the seat of its diplomatic representation. The negotiation of a peace treaty and its successful outcome took the shape of the Treaty of Lausanne in 1923. The Treaty of Lausanne left an indelible mark in our memory. The aspiration of the Turkish nation to live as a free and independent people is thus anchored in Switzerland, a land that earned the reputation for fairness, equity and justice. The subsequent adoption in 1926 of a Civil Code based on the Swiss example, the Montreux Convention negotiated in 1936 in Switzerland giving full sovereignty on the Turkish Straits and other events have solidified this perception. I am therefore particularly pleased that the roots of the friendship bonds between Turkey and Switzerland and the main events associating Switzerland to Turkey have been compiled in a book. The book also illustrates the reciprocal attention and like minded approaches of both Turkey and Switzerland to further promote bilateral relations between two democracies and to facilitate the realization of aspirations of peace. I would like to express my thanks to the President of the Swiss Confederation, His Excellency Pascal Couchepin and to all who have contributed to the realization of this book. -

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. -
Max Huber and the Red Cross
The European Journal of International Law Vol. 18 no. 1 © EJIL 2007; all rights reserved .......................................................................................... Max Huber and the Red Cross Yves Sandoz * Abstract Max Huber’s exceptional academic, diplomatic and judicial career prepared him well for his role as president of the ICRC. Huber assumed the presidency in 1928, thereby taking on the heavy burden of piloting the institution during one of the worst periods of history, culminat- ing with the Second World War. In a time of great danger to the fundamental humanitarian values and the unity of the Red Cross, Max Huber played an outstanding role in better iden- tifying and defending the Red Cross principles, keeping the International Red Cross united and promoting humanitarian law. In spite of its important humanitarian activities, the ICRC was powerless to put a halt to the atrocities committed during the War and was subsequently criticized for having been too timid in denouncing them. This article traces Huber’s leader- ship of the ICRC and the important impact his ideas had on the direction of the organization. Max Huber will certainly remain as one of the greatest personalities in the entire history of the Red Cross. 1 Introduction If we were to judge by the number of years of his presidency, this article could easily have been entitled ‘ Max Huber as the Red Cross ’ , so close were the ties between the man and the institution for so many years. Huber had an intellect to be reckoned with; he not only produced a number of basic texts on international law but also numerous works on all aspects of the Red Cross, while serving at the same time as president of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) for many years, and hence playing a key role in the organization.
