Lira: Definition and Links by Encyclopedian.com Lira is the name of the monetary unit of a number of countries. The Italian lira (plural lire) was the official unit of currency in Italy until January 1, 2002, when it was replaced by the euro, and it ceased to be legal tender on February 28 of that year. The Turkish currency, also called the lira, is often referred to as the "Turkish lira" outside Turkey, to avoid confusion with the better-known Italian money. www.encyclopedian.com /li/Lira.html   (281 words)

Millosh Gjergj Nikolla - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Some poems, such as Të birtë e shekullit të ri (The sons of the new age), Zgjimi (Awakening), Kanga e rinis (Song of youth) and Kanga e të burgosunit (The prisoner’s song), are assertively declamatory in a left-wing revolutionary manner. In Të lindet njeriu (May the man be born) and particularly, in the Nietzschean dithyramb Trajtat e Mbinjeriut (The shape of the Superman), a strangled, crushed will transforms itself into "ardent desire for a new genius," for the Superman to come. It is the tearful eyes and the red lips which catch his attention; the rest of the body is rarely described.Passion and rapturous desire are ubiquitous in his verse, but equally present is the spectre of physical intimacy portrayed in terms of disgust and sorrow. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Millosh_Gjergj_Nikolla   (1951 words)

Culture of Albania - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The oldest known document in Albanian is from November 8, 1462, a formula of baptism (Albanian: Formula e Pagëzimit) by the bishop of Durrës, Pal Engjëlli. There is also a German-Albanian dictionary by Arnold Von Harf from 1497, and the oldest known Albanian printed book, Meshari (The Missal) that was written by Gjon Buzuku, a Catholic cleric, in 1555. Migjeni’s Vargjet e Lira {free verse} seeks to dispel the magic of the old myths and awaken the reader to present injustices. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Sports_in_Albania   (521 words)

SEDA - Home   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02) In the spirit of “Bucolics” and “Georgics” of Vergil, in his “Bagëti e bujqësia” (Shepherds and Farmers) he sang to the works of the land tiller and shepherd by writing a hymn to the beauties of his fatherland and expressing the nostalgia of the émigré poet and the pride of being Albanian. Fishta’s poem is distinguished by its vast linguistic wealth, is a receptacle for the richness of the popular speech of the highlands, the live and infinite phraseology and the diversity of clear syntax constructions, which give vitality and strength to the poetic expression. His poetry “Vargjet e lira” (Free Verse), 1936, and prose are permeated by a severe social realism on the misery and tragic position of the individual in the society of the time. www.seda.org.al /ACH/literature.htm   (4089 words)

Lasgush PORADECI It was here that he met and befriended the romantic poet Asdreni, whom he replaced as secretary of the Albanian colony in 1922, short story writer Mitrush Kuteli (1907-1967), and numerous Romanian writers and poets. Vallja e yjve (The dance of the stars) and Ylli i zemrës (The star of the heart), published in Romania in 1933 and 1937 respectively, are indeed just as much a revolution in Albanian verse as was Migjeni’s Vargjet e lira (Free verse). Vallja e yjve was published at the Albania Press in Constanza from funds collected in 1932 with the help of Asdreni and a group of Albanian students in Bucharest. www.albanianliterature.com /authors2/AA2-13.html   (1393 words)

Dr. Robert Elsie - Migjeni (Millosh Gjergj Nikolla). Free Verse Migjeni's only volume of verse, Vargjet e lira, Tirana 1944 (Free verse), was composed over a three-year period from 1933 to 1935. Typical of the suffering and of the futility of human endeavour for Migjeni is Rezignata (Resignation), a poem in the longest cycle of the collection, Kangët e mjerimit (Songs of poverty). Passion and rapturous desire are ubiquitous in his verse, but equally present is the spectre of physical intimacy portrayed in terms of disgust and sorrow. www.elsie.de /pub/b24.html   (2374 words)

Kosova.com - Sabri Hamiti: Albanian literary schools Pjetër Bogdani (1630-1689), in his Cuneus Prophetarum (Çeta e profetëve) interposes Kangët e Sibilave [The Songs of Sibyls], which presage the coming of Christ (i.e., poetry is at the service of the Christian doctrine), thus producing a cultivated literary verse, the eleven syllable verse, and the form of stanza with a regular rhyme scheme. From his first book Net shqiptare (1938) [Albanian Nights] to the work he left in manuscript E madhe është gjëma e mëkatit (1947) [Great Is the Calamity of Sin], Kuteli unveiled the individual suffering and passions in a dramatic showdown with the norm and death. He created the metaphors of rimat e shqetsueme (1965) [agitated rhymes], of lulëkuqet e gjakut [the red poppies of blood] and bukuria e zezë (1968) [the dark beauty], comparable with the flowers of evil or the terrified beauty of Lasgush Poradeci. www.kosova.com /artikulli/20751   (4714 words)
