About me / Bio:
Donat Kurti was born in Shkodër, Albania, on 3 September 1903, to a family of Turkish origin. He studied at the Saverian College of Shkodër and later at the University of Istanbul, where he majored in political science. He worked in the Albanian public administration, drafting laws and organizing the census. He was a supporter of King Zog and resisted the Italian invasion of Albania in 1939. He was arrested and interned by the fascists, but resumed his research and writing after the German occupation. He joined the League of Writers and Artists of Albania in 1945 and focused on the study of oriental words and folklore in Albanian. He published several articles, books, and dictionaries on this topic, as well as satirical and religious writings. He is considered the main orientalist in Albania and one of the most prominent scholars of the Albanian language and culture. He died in Fushë-Firej, near Shkodër, Albania, on 10 November 1983.
