Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Area Handbook for Albania' seeks to present an overview of the various social, political, and economic aspects of the country as they appeared in 1970. The leaders of the Communist Party have gone to extremes to maintain an aura of secrecy about their nation and their efforts to govern it. Material on Albania is scanty and some that is available is not reliable but, using their own judgments on sources, the authors have striven for objectivity in this effort to depict Albanian society in 1970.

Book excerpt: Albania, on the Balkan coast of the Adriatic Sea, is almost the land that time forgot. Waiting to be rediscovered, it is a country rich in natural resources, history, traditions, and culture. Romans, Byzantines, Slavs, Venetians, and Ottoman Turks all left their mark. In modern times, after briefly gaining independence, Albania endured decades of oppression under Italian Fascist, Nazi German, and hard-line Communist rule, and was in the iron grip of the Stalinist dictator Enver Hoxa for thirty-seven years. It emerged from total isolation in the 1980s, cautiously at first, and then with gusto. Student protests in 1991 led to the fall of the Communist regime, since when the country has made remarkable progress toward democratization and economic stability. It has been welcomed into the international community, becoming a member of NATO in 2009, and applying for EU membership in the same year. While many European countries are experiencing economic decline, Albania has enjoyed strong economic growth. It is open to foreign investment, and eager to share its culture with the world. Albanians are sociable, hospitable, opinionated, and proud. Family counts above all else. Close-knit, even clannish to Western eyes, they also have unique history of religious tolerance. Even under Nazi occupation they provided a safe haven for Jews. Most Albanians are nominally Muslim, but society is very secular, and people of all religions live together in harmony. Cultures Smart! Albania gives you the key to understanding modern Albanians. It explains their customs and traditions, offers insights into social values and attitudes, and equips you to engage with people in an informed and open way. It is impossible to visit this extraordinary country without being fascinated by its unusual cultural heritage, appreciating its beautiful coastline, and enjoying the friendliness of its people.

Download or read book Eternal Butrint written by Richard Hodges and published by Butrint Foundation. This book was released on 2006 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Located at a crossroads in the Mediterranean, the site of Butrint is a microcosm of changes in the region over the last 3,000 years. Few UNESCO World Heritage Sites command such scientific interest - and few are more richly documented. Set in a marshy landscape between an inland lagoon and the busy straits separating Corfu and Albania, Butrint boasts well-preserved, photogenic remains from most periods. The site has been occupied since at least the 8th century BC, and Virgil recounts how the Trojan exile, Aeneas, landed here before he founded Rome. Subsequent travellers have all recognised an elegiac beauty in the site. This book charts the development and change of Butrint, using the archaeological remains and environment to paint a grand, complex picture worthy of its millennia of history. It is illustrated with exceptional paintings by Grand Tourists like Edward Lear, the magnificent photographs of Luigi Ugolini, the recently discovered archives of the Communist period, and the Butrint Foundation's rich documentation. The book concludes by analysing how tourists are bringing economic hope to Albania as they dicsover the myth of Aeneas in its unspoilt landscape.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the cradle of the Balkans, where mountains kissed the skies and rivers whispered forgotten tales, a land of ancient wonders and historical mystique existed—the land of the Ancient Albanians. This captivating book, "The Albanian Odyssey: Unraveling the Ancient Tapestry," embarks on a journey through time, revealing the untold stories of a resilient nation that has left an indelible mark on the world. Long before recorded history, the Albanians inhabited the region, shrouded in enigma. Chapter by chapter, we will explore their enigmatic origins, unearthing the connections between the Illyrians, an ancient and proud people, and the enigmatic Palasgians. The cradle of Albania's cultural heritage, Butrinti, whispers secrets of a 6000-year-old history, offering glimpses into the lives of its people and the emperors and royalty who once graced its hallowed grounds. We will walk in the footsteps of the likes of Augustus and Caesar, tracing their encounters with this ancient land. An enthralling chapter awaits as we delve into the essence of the Albanian language, a linguistic treasure that bridges the past with the present. Its evolution and influence are undeniable, intertwining with those of Macedonians, Greeks, Romans, and Turks. This book takes a fascinating turn as it explores the Albanian influence on historical figures who left an indelible mark on the world stage. From Muhammad Ali Pasha, the founder of Egypt with Albanian roots, to the valiant Gjergj Kastrioti (better known as Skanderbeg) and even a connection to the mighty Alexander the Great himself, these tales will evoke emotions of pride and admiration. We will pay tribute to one of the world's most beloved figures, Mother Teresa, whose Albanian heritage embodied boundless compassion and love for humanity. Marin Barleti, an esteemed historian, will take us on a historical rollercoaster, unraveling Albania's past to preserve its cultural memory. The far-reaching influence of Albanians extends even to the heart of the Vatican, where Pope Clement XI served as a shining beacon of faith, pride, and wisdom. Their contributions to art, literature, science, and more have indelibly shaped the world we know today. Join us as we celebrate the modern Albanian identity, forged through centuries of perseverance, valor, and passion. Through the emotional and heartwarming accounts of their journey, we will gain a profound understanding of the indomitable spirit that has made the Albanians an indispensable thread in the tapestry of humanity. So, dear reader, buckle up for a ride through time and emotion as we unravel the epic tale of the Ancient Albanians—a tale of courage, love, and a legacy that stands tall amid the ebb and flow of history.

Book excerpt: From the late nineteenth century to the post-communist period, Albanian and Georgian political and intellectual elites have attributed hopes to “Europe,” yet have also exhibited ambivalent attitudes that do not appear likely to vanish any time soon. Albanians and Georgians have evoked, experienced, and continue to speak of “Europe” according to a tense triadic entity—geopolitics, progress, culture—which has generated aspirations as well as delusions towards it and themselves. This unique dichotomy weaves a nuanced, historical account of a changing Europe, continuously marred by uncertainties that greatly affect these countries’ domestic politics as well as foreign policy decisions. A systematic and rich account of how Albanians and Georgians view Europe, this book offers a fresh perspective on the vast East/West literature and, more broadly, on European intellectual, cultural, and political history.

Download or read book Five Albanian Villages written by Antonio Laurìa and published by Firenze University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-27 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the result of a research project designed and carried out at the Department of Architecture, University of Florence. This research was based on the transfer of knowledge from members of the Albanian Diaspora in Italy (university students, young architects and researchers) to their home country. This unique process blazed a trail in the Albania-related studies by creating a methodology, which could be replicated not only in Albanian rural contexts, but also elsewhere. The book constitutes a structured tool for generating sustainable and socially inclusive territorial development processes in five lesser-known Albanian cultural sites. Their tangible and intangible cultural heritage was seen as a driving factor for triggering development processes aimed at improving the inhabitants’ quality of life and strengthening local identity and social networks. Through concrete proposals and strategies, the book offers scenarios and solutions capable of enhancing the potential of each village and, at the same time, counteracting the effects of land abandonment that so often characterise them.
