This course is among the characterizing teachings of the course of study in Language, civilizations and language sciences. It aims to provide a general understanding of Albanian literature of exile and emigration and related problems of identity, culture and language.

The course aims to introduce to the knowledge of the main phenomena that have determined the phenomenon of migration from Albania to Italy at the end of the twentieth century and the development of an Albanian literature outside the borders of the national state. This knowledge must include the ability: a) to frame a literary text in its context and comment critically; b) to apply the acquired knowledge; c) to interpret the data; d) to communicate the reflections raised by the texts; e) to reflect independently on authors, themes and texts treated; f) to communicate the literary phenomena treated with appropriate language.
No prerequisite is required to attend the course.
This course aims to sketch the essential lines of the cultural context that gave rise to the phenomenon of migration of Albanian writers from Albania to Italy and France in the late twentieth century. It will consider their literary production, the use of both Albanian and Italian languages, the link with the homeland and their adapting to the new land. Various critical methodologies will be presented in order to allow students to acquire (for the Albanian Literature course 1) and consolidate (for the Albanian Literature course 2) analytical and philological skills in relation to the literary texts examined.
