November 27, 1972<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Viktor Eftimiu, Romanian writer of Albanian origin, Romanian academic, died in Bucharest, Romania. He was born in Boboshtica, Korça, in 1889. He attended school in the Greek language in his hometown; settled in Romania in 1897. He ranks among the most vocal representatives of Romanian literature of the 20th century. Although he lived far from his birthplace, Viktor Eftimiu maintained his spiritual ties with Albania. In the 20s of the 20th century, he was the head of a society of patriots in Bucharest, which worked for the protection of the rights of Albania as an independent state. At this time, in support of Albania’s interests, he also wrote a series of articles in the foreign press. He came to Albania in 1971, visited his birthplace and assessed the country’s progress. Viktor Eftimiu wrote a series of creations with Albanian motifs: “Portrete dhe kujtime”(“Portraits and memories”), “Dy kryqe”(“Two crosses”), the poem “Skënderbeu” (“Skanderbeg”) and the essay “Folklori shqiptar” (“Albanian Folklore”). Some of his works have been translated into Albanian, while some others have also been staged. Viktor Eftimiu was an honorary member of the League of Writers and Artists of Albania. He was decorated with the “Naim Frashëri” order of Class I. (In the photo: Viktor Eftimiu)<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
