Votim Hanoli*: Literature studied in the social context of the transition period (Letërsia e parë në kontekstin social në periudhë tranzicioni)

Abstract

In a society which strives every day to change the course of its destiny, it is not by chance that the battle for this change has been conducted in many different directions. The need to achieve a kind of stability with itself and why not with others as well has resulted in numerous factors to approach this social reflection. From this perspective, "the new man of modern era" of the post '90s comes inspired and eager for some sort of transformation, a transformation which many times has affected the deep wounds that were left open in his body and soul. Looking deep within these deep contrasts, even literature has had its ups and downs. This is not because it got tired of seeking these gestations, but the society itself made them available to literature, making the latter its mirror of confession. Various topics, perhaps unknown until that time, dunked the pencil of writers, thus becoming a solidarity part of the Albanian soul, Albanian post traumatic distress which the transition tried to heal.At that time, writers copied models, imitated the great people of modern world, brought myths back to life, searched in the history and found what was needed, the yearning to express the freedom of this endless transition. This paper will attempt to list works and authors, whose themes go beyond the idealistic limits and appear to become deeper and more touchable in time and space, and where perhaps there is a greater need for the latter.
