Time Distortions in the Albanian Novel

Author

  • Luciano Boci

Abstract

The novel is the most successful literary work that creates the intimate relationship between literature and time, as well as the aesthetic and artistic value of time proceedings. It permits the enfolding of time, which flows away when the future is not yet present, when the past is absent and when the present is just a slipping moment. This is just what the most recognized novelists of Albanian literature make use of. They do not just make it coherent but they also provide reverse movement for it, turning it back, or predicting it, thus playing the role of a prophet. This is what makes them successful and what connects Albanian literature with its natural European context. Of course these types of proceedings are not isolated because they are in continuous evolution and they can be even more than what we have presented here in our study.
