The same theme is central to the events that repeatedly catapulted Albania into international headlines, and which are still challenging the Albanian government to re-integrate law and order and lost state authority - themes which can be related to the current Kosovo crisis. ...

Another factor which has undoubtedly had a major influence on the lack of interest in Albanian literature has been the traditional isolation of the Albanians and their culture from the world around them. ...
- In addition to the historical and political factors, Albanian is not an easy language to learn, and there are few foreigners who have managed to master it sufficiently to be able to translate literary texts.
