American Protestantism and the Kyrias School for Girls, Albania By
Of Women, Faith, and Nation: American Protestantism and the Kyrias School For Girls, Albania by Nevila Pahumi A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) in the University of Michigan 2016 Doctoral Committee: Professor Pamela Ballinger, Co-Chair Professor John V.A. Fine, Co-Chair Professor Fatma Müge Göçek Professor Mary Kelley Professor Rudi Lindner Barbara Reeves-Ellington, University of Oxford © Nevila Pahumi 2016 For my family ii Acknowledgements This project has come to life thanks to the support of people on both sides of the Atlantic. It is now the time and my great pleasure to acknowledge each of them and their efforts here. My long-time advisor John Fine set me on this path. John’s recovery, ten years ago, was instrumental in directing my plans for doctoral study. My parents, like many well-intended first generation immigrants before and after them, wanted me to become a different kind of doctor. Indeed, I made a now-broken promise to my father that I would follow in my mother’s footsteps, and study medicine. But then, I was his daughter, and like him, I followed my own dream. When made, the choice was not easy. But I will always be grateful to John for the years of unmatched guidance and support. In graduate school, I had the great fortune to study with outstanding teacher-scholars. It is my committee members whom I thank first and foremost: Pamela Ballinger, John Fine, Rudi Lindner, Müge Göcek, Mary Kelley, and Barbara Reeves-Ellington. -

Robert Elsie, one of the few Albanologists working in English, has brought attention to Albanian literaturre by way of several books of translation as well as critical works on politics, culture, history and individual authors. There is as yet no significant body of literary criticism which analyzes broad thematic trends and poetic memes in texts from a variety of periods and places. This essay seeks to serve as a foundatiion for this kind of synthetic scholarship. Through close readings of poems from the beginnings of Albanian literature to today on the inter-related themes of exile and nostalgia, this work emphasizes the evolution of Albanian attitudes about colonization and independence as they are viewed from at home and inn the diaspora. Keywoords: : Albania, exile, poetics, diaspora Özet: Genelde Arnavut edebiyatı ve özelde de Arnavut şiiri Balkan’ların dışına taşan bir akademik ilgiye sahip olmuştur; ancak halen okuyucu ve eleştirmenlere bu edebiyatın sunacakları çoktur. İngilizce yazan Arnavutbilimcilerden Robert Elsie yapmış olduğu çeviriler ve politik, kültürel, tarihseel ve bireysel yazan bir çok yazar hakkındaki eleştirileriyle Arnavvuut edebiyatını çalışan bir kaç kişiden birridir. Ancak, bir çok tarihsel dönem ve coğrafi bölgeden gelen edebi metinlerin konularını ve şiirsel özelliiklerini konu edinen çalışma halen çok azdır. -

Negotiating World Literature in the First International Journal of Comparative Literary Studies
STUDIA UBB PHILOLOGIA, LVII, 2, 2012, p. 33-51 NEGOTIATING WORLD LITERATURE IN THE FIRST INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMPARATIVE LITERARY STUDIES. THE ALBANIAN CASE SZABÓ T. LEVENTE* ABSTRACT. Negotiating world literature in the first international journal of comparative literary studies. The Albanian case. Former research on the first international journal of comparative literary studies, the Acta Comparationis Litterarum Universarum edited in Cluj, has often been to general and consequently avoided to tackle the basic question of the nature of the large scholarly network that made this journal unique. Through the case study of Thimi / Euthyme Mitko and the presence of the Albanian literature in ACLU the paper foregrounds the subtle, often almost unvisible, but important negotiation of visions that came to frame the often neglected and less analysed dynamics of the journal. Key words: Acta Comparationis Litterarum Universarum, Brassai Sámuel, Hugo von Meltzl, Thimi Mitko, Dora d’Istria, Albanian literature, scholarly networks of collaborators. REZUMAT. Negocierea ideii de literatură universală în primul jurnal internaţional de literatură comparată. Cazul literaturii albaneze. Studiile legate de Acta Comparationis Litterarum Universarum, primul organ internaţional de literatură comparată, au fost de multe ori prea generale, iar detaliile legate de reţeaua vastă de colaboratori a ajuns pe planul al doilea. Lucrarea prezintă o analiză detaliată a modului în care figura carismatică a naţionalismului albanez, Thimi Mitko (Euthyeme Mitko) din Cairo, a fost cooptat în reţeaua internaţională a colaboratorilor Actei. În acest proces complex de negociere dintre diferitele viziuni legate de literatura albaneză şi universală, de noţiunile de naţiune şi cosmopolitism, soarta şi repoziţionarea textelor lui Mitko pot deveni un model în ceea ce priveşte funcţionarea reţelelor de colaboratori în jurul Actei Comparationis Litterarum Universarum. -

The Ballad of the Walled up Woman in Albanian Studies Olimbi VELAJ∗
The ballad of the walled up woman in Albanian studies Olimbi VELAJ∗ Abstract In the Albanian folklore, the ballad of the walled up woman is one of the oldest and best known ballads. It’s motive is to sacrifice a young woman in the foundations of a castle, a bridge, or another object that is important for ethnicity. The spread of this motive crosses the Balkan borders. Albanian neighbors, because of the most favorable circumstances like historical, geopolitical and other, have collected and published their songs half a century ago, and with them the options of the ballad for the walled up woman. Collections and Albanian version publications have been always at a disadvantage because of being fewer and not exhibited in a good way in the European literature of that time. In studies conducted in recent decades by philologists and Albanian scholars of folklore this ballad is estimated especially for the variants about the fortress of Shkodra. In this review the aim is to note how this ballad has been studied since the time of its collection until today, how has documentation evolved and what progress was made in collection of variants and in their interpretation. We refer also to researchers and schools which influenced me more. Keywords: ballad, immurement, variants, studies, folklore, Albanian, castle, Balkan, interpretation, scholars, literature One of the most interesting motives and more prevalent in the Balkans is the immurement of a human being on the foundations of an important work for the community. A legend, a ballad and sacrifices of people who want to have stable buildings, that came to us documented or transmitted from generation to generation, remain even today a matter of interest to those dealing ∗ Ma. -
Albania's Course Toward Statehood
ALBANIA’S COURSE TOWARD STATEHOOD A CASE OF INTERACTION BETWEEN GREAT POWER’ POLICIES, THE OTTOMAN AND BALKAN POLITICAL ENVIRONMENT AND ALBANIAN CULTURAL AND BIOLOGICAL NATIONALISM A REVIEW ARTICLE The Albanian National Awakening 1878-1912, by Stavro Skendi, Princeton N. J., Princeton University Press, 1967, 498 pp. This book deals essentially with the emergence of the Albanians’ aware ness of their ethnic character in the multinational Ottoman empire during the thirty-four years that preceded the establishment of Albania as an indepen dent and sovereign nation-state in 1912. Thus, within the broader historical context, this bulky and laborious volume constitutes a small though far from uninteresting chapter in the long story of the gradual disintegration of the Ottoman empire and, more specificallY of the breakup of its European terri tories into several nation-states, with Albania being the last to achieve that status, in the face of increasinglY strenuous Ottoman efforts since the nine teenth century to fight the centrifugal tendencies becoming manifest in its territories elsewhere too, in Egypt, for example. Although lacking in many respects in internal continuity, in spite of its broad chronological outline, partly perhaps because some of its chapters are based on separate articles Mr. Skendi published between 1953 and 1960; re vealing, too, a certain weakness in organization because of the seeming absence of any unifying esthetic form or of an underlying conceptual framework; although lacking a map that would show the territorial extent of the Albanians’ habitat and of their territorial aspirations as compared to the territorial extent of Albania as an independent state; and, finally, suffering from rather poor editing, several typographical errors, and imperfect indexing, ultimate respon sibility for which lies mainlY with the publishers, this study, nevertheless, is an important contribution to Balkan history, making use of unpublished documents from Austrian, French, British, and Italian state archives, though 30 Stephen G. -

As regards the Albanian language, during these two centuries have taken place very important events in regarding the consolidation and development of Albanian literature. The interest of foreigners for Albania, the foundation of Albanology, as well as the codification of Albanian language are some of the most important events which influenced further developments. On the other hand, the Greek languages as more prestigious and cultivated language is used as Albanian’s supporter in order to help on its process of codification and crystallization. In this context we will see the most important dictionaries of these centuries, which are: Greek - simple arvanitshe Dictionary of Marco Botsari; Greek - Albanian Dictionary of Panayiotis Kupitori; Greek – Albanian Dictionary of Kotso Tasi; Albanian- Greek Dictionary of Konstantine Kristoforidhi; Albanian- Greek Dictionary of Tassos Nerutsos; Albanian- Greek Dictionary of Nicholas Tsetsi; Albanian- Greek Dictionary of Niko Gjini; Albanian- Greek Dictionary of Vasil Partali.

During their hard work how to protect and highlight the " Arbëresh world ", they had to overcome numerous difficulties of linguistic and literary character in their native language writing. The Arbơresh community of Italy wrote in the native language and the first known writer until today among them was Lek Matrënga with his masterpiece "E mbsuame e krishterë" (1592). Under the influence of Italian Language, as well as under the influence of the Roman Catholic culture, the arbëresh writers have used mainly Latin alphabet. In 1836 De Rada for the first time published in Napoli "Songs of Milosaos". In the foreword of this wonderful lyric poem, the powerful researcher expressed deep concern for the preservation of the Albanian identity and arberesh folk songs. Even today his creative work is an inspiration source and a subject of study for a considerable number of albanologists, linguists and teachers of the Albanian language.
