He was born in Strelc\u00eb of Gora (Kor\u00e7\u00eb), in 1927. He participated in the Anti-Fascist National Liberation War. After the liberation, he worked as an editor in various press organizations and the &#8220;Naim Frash\u00ebri&#8221; publishing house (1949-1968). In 1968, he was sent for &#8220;re-education&#8221; as a worker at the Vau of Deja hydropower plant. He returned as an editor at the &#8220;Naim Frash\u00ebri&#8221; publishing house in 1971; since 1997, he has lived in Switzerland. In the first phase of Vehbi Skenderi&#8217;s creativity, the favorite theme of his poetry was the life and psychology of working people, treated with a lyricism that merges with a concreteness of details. After the 90sof the 20th century, Vehbi Skenderi began to deal with existential themes, renewing his creativity with a universal philosophical dimension and psychological depth. He has published several volumes of poetry, such as: &#8220;Morning again&#8221; (1973), &#8220;The years are ringing&#8221; (1984), &#8220;We pretend&#8221; (1995), etc. <i>(In the photo: Vehbi Skenderi)<\/i><\/p>\n<p><strong>Text:<\/strong> <i>Albanian encyclopedic dictionary &#8211; Vol. 3<\/i>, Academy of Sciences of Albania, &#8220;Kristalina-KH&#8221;, Tirana, 2009, page 2357.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Photo: <\/strong>\u00a9 Albanian Telegraphic Agency<\/p>\n<p><strong>Graphic processing: <\/strong>AHCF<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vehbi Skenderi, poet, passed away in Switzerland.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1555,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7073","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-vdekje"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7073","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7073"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7073\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9904,"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7073\/revisions\/9904"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1555"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7073"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7073"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/albheritage.wpadmin.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7073"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
