Influential magazines have included: “Philological Studies” (Tiranë); “Albanian Language” (Prishtinë), “Albanological tracing works” Prishtine “Studia Albanica” (Tiranë), “Jehona” (Skopje); “Gjuha Jone” Tirane, etc. Important studies on the Albanian language outside Albania have been carried out by linguists in Kosova, Macedonia and Montenegro and a considerable number of works on the history of Albanian language, phonetics, grammar, onomasthics, lexics, etc. have been published. Prof. Idriz Ajeti of Kosova has distingushed himself for outstanding constributions. Some of the most eminent figures in Albanian Lin- guistics over the past two centuries are: Dhimitër Kamarda (an Arbëresh of Italy), Kostandin Kristoforidhi, Sami Frashëri, Aleksandër Xhuvani, Eqrem Çabej, Selman Riza, Kostaq Cipo, Mahir Domi, Shaban Demiraj, Androkli Kostallari and Idriz Ajeti. In 2008, the Department of Linguistics at the Uni- versity of Vienna began an in-depth study on (Old) Alba- nian. By discovering obsolete and restructured verbal forms, these researchers aim to explain the linguistic history of Albanian, as well as the reciprocal relationship between neighbouring languages and Albanian, which they say is the source of the suffixed definite article in Romanian, Bulgarian and Macedonian. The project uses the entire body of available Old Albanian literature dating from between the 16th and 18th centuries, and comprises 1,500 pages of text, almost exclusively Catholic religious litera- The (Old) Albanian ture.

Victor A. FRIEDMAN ALBANIAN in the BALKAN LINGUISTIC LEAGUE
STUDIA ALBANICA 2005/1 Victor A. FRIEDMAN ALBANIAN IN THE BALKAN LINGUISTIC LEAGUE: A RECONSIDERATION OF THEORETICAL IMPLICATIONS. It is a fundamental principle of Albanian dialectology that the Geg/Tosk split represents the oldest and most significant dialectological division in the transition from Common Albanian to Albanian as it is historically attested. It is likewise a common place that Geg is the less “Balkanized” of the two dialects. On the one hand, the preservation of a distinct optative mood, the remnants of the ablative and, dialectally, the locative, and the complex expression of possessives are pan-Albanian features that are in contrast to general Balkan developments. On the other hand, for example, while classic Balkanisms such as the conditional based on the future-in-the-past, the postposed definite article (which Hamp 1982 argues was already in place during the period of contact with Latin), the analytic comparative, the expression of teens by means of ‘on ten’ (which Hamp 1992:918 connects to pre-Slavic/pre-Albanian areal contact, which would have had to have been in northern Europe given the pan-Slavic but non-Baltic nature of the construction), the development of an analytic subjunctive, and also the use of ‘one’ as an indefinite marker (see Friedman 2003), are pan-Albanian Balkanisms. The Geg infinitive in me + short participle (vs the Tosk lack of such a construction) and the future using kam ‘have’ + infinitive (vs the Tosk use of a particle derived from ‘will’ + subjunctive) are among the distinctions most commonly cited as non-Balkan characteristics of Geg. A closer look at the details of Geg dialectology, however, reveals a more complex picture of areal features and contact-induced phenomena.

Dear Mister Prime Minister
Dear Mister Prime Minister, The undersigned of this public petition, in their capacity as honorary members of the Academy of Sciences of Albania, make this appeal against the attempt for the dissolution of the institution, with which we are honored to have been associated. On the other hand, we invite you to promote a new phase of dialogue with the academic community, sticking to the ultimate goal of proposing a realistic and rigorous reform of the sensitive sector of higher education and scientific research. The undersigned are firmly convinced that most of the time available to trigger a radical reformation process of the Academy has flown unproductive. Today, perhaps more than ever, it is necessary and convenient to transform it into a modern and competitive research center of excellence. With a sense of individual and collective responsibility, we feel that moving towards the elimination of the Institution will reach a point of no return that could undermine the future life of scientific research in Albania. Having said this, we do no claim or nourish any presumptions to have definitive and effective solutions, and we do not pretend to substitute the legitimate expectations of the new government program that you are about to make. Sometimes, however, the courage to stop and discuss can be more fulfilling and, perhaps, more beneficial, to anticipate making irreversible mistakes such as throwing out the baby with the dirty bathwater. The Academy of Sciences, like other public Albanian institutions, has been through the long and endless transition from dictatorship to democracy that has been shaking the Albanian society.

The Albanian Language in the Face of Globalization Challanges: the Issue of Borrowings
European Scientific Journal September 2015 edition vol.11, No.25 ISSN: 1857 – 7881 (Print) e - ISSN 1857- 7431 THE ALBANIAN LANGUAGE IN THE FACE OF GLOBALIZATION CHALLANGES: THE ISSUE OF BORROWINGS Meri Gjoleka, PhD Department of Foreing Languages, the Faculty of Humane Sciencies University of Vlora “Ismail Qemali”, Albania Abstract Today, due to the rapid development of globalization almost all languages, perhaps are facing more than ever the powerful phenomenon of borrowings. In this course of changes, it is quite natural that even the Albanian language is part of them. But, if languages such as: English, French, Italian, German are widely spoken and are relatively protected, the Albanian language as a language spoken only by a small popullation, faces a more delicate situation for the protection of its own linguistic and cultural identity. But what are the languages which have more supplied the Albanian language with borrowings and what institutional precaution should be taken in order to protect it from an uncontrolled flow of borrowings by preserving its values? By this article, we will try to give a more complete overview of this phenomenon and the efforts needed to preserve it as pure as possible. Keywords: Mother tongue, foreign language, borrowings, globalization, required measures Introduction Every language has experienced the phenomenon of linguistic borrowings from different languages during certain historical periods. This phenomenon has emerged as a result of various factors such as: the historical, the cultural, the geographical proximity factors etc. The Albanian language has not been an exception of such a phenomenon. The crystallization of the Albanian language as a standard one, took place after the Orthography Congress held in 1972.

Albanian Language Management and the Generation of Kosovo Albanian National Identity Since 1945
ALBANIAN LANGUAGE MANAGEMENT AND THE GENERATION OF KOSOVO ALBANIAN NATIONAL IDENTITY SINCE 1945 JUSTIN GREGORY HAMILTON ELLIOTT University College London Doctor of Philosophy 2017 I, Justin Gregory Hamilton Elliott, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 ABSTRACT This thesis is about the development of a national identity through the means of language, both as a terrain and a vehicle. This thesis argues the modern intellectuals’ sense of moral mission in colonial nation-building was a response to exogenous modernization, and involved imagining the people as Albanians separated from Albania. This was most clearly encapsulated in the adoption of the same standard language as Albania in 1968 and the intellectuals’ subsequent management and reaction to external constraint, which was imposed in such a way as to prove counterproductive and enhance the intellectuals’ status still further. Yet, because there are limits to the way in which imagination of a society can conflict with reality, the standard language has failed to bring political or linguistic unity. In arguing this, the thesis provides a new interpretation of the development of Kosovo Albanian national identity. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 4 Chapter One How the Modern Kosovo Albanian intellectual 57 became possible Chapter Two Writing as they hear: the Standardization of 95 Albanian in the People’s Republic of Albania Chapter Three Standard Albanian

Means of Linguistic Expression in Frang Bardhi's 'Apology of Scanderbeg - on the Occasion of the 550Th Anniversary of the Death of the National Hero
ISSN 2411-9598 (Print) European Journal of May-August 2018 ISSN 2411-4103 (Online) Language and Literature Studies Volume 4, Issue 3 Means of Linguistic Expression in Frang Bardhi's 'Apology of Scanderbeg - On the Occasion of the 550th Anniversary of the Death of the National Hero PhD. Elvis Bramo University of Tirana Faculty of Foreign Languages Department of Slavic and Balkan Languages Abstract This article is dedicated to the work ‘’Skenderbeu’’ (Apology), 1 written in Latin by F. Bardhi in 1636 and translated into Albanian 61 years ago from the famous Latinist, Stefan Prifti. The work aims not only evoking the resistance and the wars of our people against the Ottoman Empire under the leadership of the National Hero, G. Kastrioti , by also as a reflection of some of linguistic means, which this apologetic piece was conceived 382 years ago, at that high level of argumentation and protection of Scanderbeg’s nationality. As composers of this article, we are mainly based on the methods of text building with the data of disputation, mainly based on the documents and the historic truths that were inherited not only by the compatriots of F. Bardhi but from many historians and works of different genres as well, dedicated to the bravery of this great Albanian. Our discourse aims to highlight the expressive power of our language, to cover and address such major subjects, elaborated according to the laws of classical oratories, starting from the characterization of the opponent who faced F.Bardhi, from the recognition of mental and intellectual qualities and attributes, to the facing of irrefutable facts.

The Path of Standard Albanian Language Formation
ISSN 2411-9563 (Print) European Journal of Social Science August 2018 ISSN 2312-8429 (Online) Education and Research Vol 5 No 2 DOI: 10.2478/ejser-2018-0039 Open Access. © 2018 Sindorela Doli Kryeziu. This is an open access article licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 4.0 License The Path of Standard Albanian Language Formation Sindorela Doli Kryeziu Prof. Ass. Dr. University of Gjakova, Faculty of Education, Professor of Albanian language, Kosovo Abstract In our paper we will talk about the whole process of standardization of the Albanian language, where it has gone through a long historical route, for almost a century.When talking about standard Albanian language history and according to Albanian language literature, it is often thought that the Albanian language was standardized in the Albanian Language Orthography Congress, held in Tirana in 1972, or after the publication of the Orthographic Rules (which was a project at that time) of 1967 and the decisions of the Linguistic Conference, a conference of great importance that took place in Pristina, in 1968. All of these have influenced chronologically during a very difficult historical journey, until the standardization of the Albanian language.Considering a slightly wider and more complex view than what is often presented in Albanian language literature, we will try to describe the path (history) of the standard Albanian formation under the influence of many historical, political, social and cultural factors that are known in the history of the Albanian
