Journal Title: Asian Journal Social Sciences & Humanities - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
Despite the large number of books published while in Italy, Zef Skirò Di Maxho is not a well-known writer in Albania, where his published books are a few. Originally he was presented in Albania with separate poetries from his editions of poetry published in various newspapers of 80s, mainly on “Drita” newspaper. The first edition of poetries published in Albania is “Pertej maleve prapa Kodres” (“Beyond the mountains behind the hill”) (1985) with poetries selected by Nasho Jorgaqi, who, on several articles, has also contributed to the criticism versus the writer’s poetry. The creativity of Zef Skirò Di Maxho, as an essential part of the Arbëresh poetry system, is an important contribution to the enrichment of the Arbëresh culture. His bilingual poetry, in Albanian and Italian, due to the way of perceiving the world and its phenomena, the contemplation and the concerns, due to the explication and the established expressive artistic and semantic system, is a poetry that distinguishes Zef Skirò Di Maxho amongst contemporary authors, and in the same time it is a coherent and related to the tradition poetry. Taking into consideration the reasons mentioned in a comprehensive and general way, the selection of this topic was done in the context of further enrichment of the studies dedicated to the creativity of the writer. Remarkably, the values of bilingualism in the writer’s creativity consist primarily on his lyrical poetry, because the translation or adequately identical reproduction of lyric poetry is impossible. There should be emphasized that the bilingual lyric poetries of the Arbëresh poet are almost identical and have their indisputable values in both relevant languages, Albanian and Italian.
