Signature: .............................................. 3 To my family 4 UNIVERSITY OF SUSSEX ZANA VATHI DPhil in MIGRATION STUDIES THE CHILDREN OF ALBANIAN MIGRANTS IN EUROPE: ETHNIC IDENTITY, TRANSNATIONAL TIES AND PATHWAYS OF INTEGRATION SUMMARY The study of the integration of the children of migrants—the so-called ‗second generation‘—is a recent trend in migration literature. Their integration is thought to be an important indicator of the degree of integration of immigrants in general into a specific society. This thesis is the first full-length comparative study of the Albanian second generation. Using a variety of field methods, it compares the ethnic identities, transnational ties and integration pathways of Albanian-origin teenagers in three European cities—London, Thessaloniki and Florence—by focusing on intergenerational transmission between the first and the second generation. Greece, Italy and the UK are, in that order, the three main European countries where Albanian migrants have settled during their short but intense migration experience of the past two decades. My study shifts the focus partly to the situation and developments in Southern Europe, where the awareness and interest in issues of the integration of the second generation are still at an initial phase. The research involved fieldwork in each of the above-named cities, where quota samples of three categories of informants were interviewed: parents, their second- generation teenage children, and teachers and other key informants within the host society. Findings show significant differences in the integration patterns of both generations, affected by sharp differences between the three contexts and the history of immigration in each context. They also point to important within- and inter-group differences, based on various socio-economic indicators. Intergenerational transmission appears as a dynamic process affected not only by context and the parents‘ socio- economic background, but also by parents‘ stage of integration. By studying a settling immigrant group and their descendants, the thesis takes a proactive approach towards the integration of ethnic minorities. 5 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS All research touches the lives of many people, and let us hope it also, in all cases, improves them. Since this research was an international multi-sited project, the number of people and institutions I have met and interacted with is even bigger. I thank them all, although probably I will not be able to do justice to their help in this note. I hope my work justifies their investment, time, effort and understanding. I am very grateful! I would like, however, to single out a few. First of all, I would like to thank my participants. I will be forever amazed by the whole experience of meeting them and getting to analyse and frame the experiences they shared with me. I am indebted because I know this has taken a lot of courage. My principal supervisor Prof. Russell King has been a great inspiration. I really thank him for trusting me throughout this study. I hope I have justified his belief in me. Dr Anastasia Christou, Prof. Janine Dahinden, and the late Prof. Michael Bommes have been of great support, too. I thank them for all they have contributed to my work. I would probably not have made it without my friends. I thank Julie Vullnetari, Shova Thapa, Nalu Binaisa and Simone Castellani for their wisdom and support; Jacques Enaudeau, Danesh Jajatilaka, Francesca Zampagni, Tanja Sinozic, Ana Porroche Escudero and Carlos Cuevas Coral for making the writing-up so much easier; the TIES junior and senior researchers for their social support and their intellectual contribution to my work; and Jenny Money for a crucial input at the final stage. This research would have been impossible without the sponsorship and assistance of many institutions. Due thanks go to the sponsors of this research: Marie Curie Actions of the European Commission and the Sussex Centre for Migration Research. In particular, I would like to thank Prof. Russell King and Dr Patrick Simon for their help and support with the complex administration of my grant. Other organisations, in no particular order, have been of great help: in London the Albanian organisations, especially ‗Ardhmëria‘, Globalb, Shpresa. In Thessaloniki the Albanian organisations, especially ‗Mother Tereza‘, and Valbona Hystuna, SEERC, the ‗Organisation of Albanians of Thessaloniki‘, the Antiracist Initiative of Thesaloniki, particularly Nikos Glarnetagis. I also thank Emmanouil Pratsinakis, Julie Vullnetari and Panos Hatziprokopiou for their help with my fieldwork in Greece. In Florence, the Department of Educational Sciences at the University of Florence and Prof. Giovana Campani for hosting me during my fieldwork; various Italian schools; and Giulia Martini, Gerta Zaimi and Tonine Pllumbi. My greatest thanks and gratitude go to my family. This thesis is dedicated to them. 6 TABLE OF CONTENTS SUMMARY III ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS IV APPENDICES VII List of vignettes VIII List of tables VIII List of figures VIII List of photos VIII Abbreviations IX Chapter 1.

Accepted: 10 May 2018 “ALWAYS BAYRAM, ALWAYS EASTER”: THE CALL FOR ALBANIAN CIVIC UNITY IN GJERGJ FISHTA’S THE HIGHLAND LUTE Abstract Gjergj Fishta’s verse narrative, Lahuta e Malcis (ca. 1907) is often regarded as the national epic of Albanians. The epic produces a fresh vision of the shared cultural identity of Albanians by telling the story of their struggle for independence blended with elements of regional and local culture which had never before entered into high literary language. The paper argues that Fishta creates a national epic not just by the events he narrates in the poem but also by the language and imagery he uses. The poem’s language puts Albanian modes of expression into high literature, depicts Muslim and Christian Albanian practices in a manner that emphasizes their common ground, and utilizes Albanian folklore such as the mythological creatures called zana and ora, which lie outside both the Christian and Muslim religions, but are closely associated with the land. In emphasizing the Albanian land, language, and culture, Fishta’s epic poem crafts a civic Albanian identity that embraces Albanian religious diversity and transcends sectarian identifications.

  • The Rainbow in Bulgarian Folklore and Some Gender Issues
    THE RAINBOW IN BULGARIAN FOLKLORE AND SOME GENDER ISSUES Miroslav Izdimirski Abstract Based on the overview of evidences concerning beliefs on sex transformation under the influence of the rainbow, there are sev- eral conclusions to be drawn. First, in the Bulgarian lands this notion and belief can be dated before the 18th century, while in the French lands – around the 16th century. The notion can be linked mostly with the Slavs, but it is also present among other Indo-Europeans in the Old Continent. Beliefs about the rainbow’s sexual dimorphism, as well as about its abil- ity to change one’s sex, are present in different continents and cultures. There is only one ethnographic evidence from an ethnic Bulgarian territory where this idea is presented as the deed of the Christian God, and in the other cases there is no explanation of the sex-changing force and its source with its origin in the celestial rainbow, which – in my opinion – means that this notion might be rooted in the pre-Christian past of our ethnicity and its composing elements. Here it is note- worthy that the rainbow is ascribed the ability to change the biological sex, while in folk culture the symbolic change of gender is possible through the ritual and in ritual context. Keywords: Rainbow, folklore, beliefs, gender The optical celestial phenomenon occurring after rain, the rainbow, has touched human imagination due to its shape and colours ever since the remotest antiquity. Literally, each folkloric pre-modern culture abounds in examples of beliefs and nar- ratives about the nature and the influence of the rainbow on the life of the commu- nities.

Like in any other book, the abc-book has some types of names. The names on these abc-books compose an important and interesting field for studies. During this research we will focus at the onomastics of Albanian abc-books in Kosovo from the year of 1945 – 2012. This study of onomastics especially analyses the anthroponomastics or the personal names. The group of anthroponyms shall include these types of individual names: names from one Albanian word, Illyrian names, Catholic names, Slavic names, oriental names, anthroponyms that came from places, the form of names that came from the first and last part of the name and names from abbreviations and different cuttings etc. This research is a study that describes and compares names from one abc- book to another. By studying different types of names in the abc-books we open a window for knowledge to the abc-books as special books, we knowledge the value of educational names as well as the types of the names in the abc- books of different periods that our people had to go through. Essentially, the study of the names has special importance because it contributes to history of education and linguistics.

After the end of the conflict, that saw the departure of the Serbian forces from Kosovo (1999), some of the Albanian-speaking activists from Switzerland returned to their homeland. Many others remained in Switzerland, where they largely diminished or terminated their homeland engagement. Since the end of the war, very little attention has been paid to these former champions of the national cause in Switzerland. Furthermore, there is also very little literature on the memories of the mobilisation in Switzerland and the related discourses of belonging to the “Albanian nation”. The situation differs in Kosovo where several researchers have analysed the memorialisation of the recent past. This dissertation explores the narratives of homeland engagement related by Albanian-speaking former activists who engaged on behalf of the national cause in Kosovo from Switzerland in the 1980s and 1990s.
