Reflexions about the Neo-classicist Dispositions of a Prohibited Playwright

The literary work of the Albanian playwright Etëhem Haxhiademi had been prohibited, due to vengeful political principles, for more than four decades,. He was one of the most notable creators of the Albanian tragedy divulging in the modern period of the Albanian literature. In 1924 he wrote the tragedy “Ulysses†in Berlin, in 1926 he wrote the tragedy “Achilles†in Vienna and in 1928 he wrote the tragedy “Alexander†in Lushnje, Albania. The three tragedies were published in Tirana, Albania, in 1931. Later on he writes and publishes the tragedy “Pyrrhus†(1934), “Scanderbeg†“Skënderbeu†(1935), “Diomedes†(1936) and “Abeles†(1938). He was also known as the creator of the poetical volume “Lyra†, (1939), His dramatic work has been set up in accordance with models of classical tragedy, making use of the antiquity or medieval subjects, even stretching back to Biblical pre-history. His literary work becomes functional to revelations which can be compared with phenomena, ideas and the problems featuring the reality of the time he wrote his works. By striving to make the notions of classicism clearer in this writing, we have directly contributed to the estimation of the literary work of E. Haxhiademi which, in our opinion, has excessive concomitances in ideas, aesthetic ideals and practices conceiving the neo-classicism experiences in Europe.
