He completed his high school studies at the Italian-Arbëresh Seminary in Palermo. Then he studied law. He actively participated in the movement for the liberation and national unification of Italy. During the years 1871-1874, Gavril Dara directed the political newspaper “La Riforma” <\/em>(“Reform”) of Francesco Crispi in Rome. The main work of Gavril Dara and one of the most outstanding poems of the literature of the National Renaissance is “Kënga e sprasme e Balës<\/em>“, which was published in its entirety in 1900-1902, in the Albanian newspaper “La nazione albanese” <\/em>.
