Gli Albanesi Tra Occidente E Oriente

This short but dense essay by Çabej is to be considered an indispensable work for those who want to thoroughly investigate the history and mentality of the Albanian people. With the aim of examining the different elements that influence the formation of the character of a people and its culture, the description of the geographical features of the country, the analysis of the origin of the name of the people, converge in the work, the debate on foreign influences and everything that makes Albania a crossroads between the West and the East. But under the magnifying glass pass also the fis (the tribes) of the north and the south, the traditionalist areas of the mountains and the national unity, to arrive at interesting and appreciable conclusions on folklore and literature.
