In Tirana, Tahir Dizdari, a prominent philologist and orientalist, passed away. He was born in Shkodër, in 1900. He completed his higher studies in political science at Istanbul University in Turkey from 1922 to 1925. During the years 1925-1939 he served in the higher state administration and was active as a publicist, critic and polemicist in various newspapers of the time. During the fascist occupation, for his nationalist views, he was exiled to Italy from 1939–1942. He was arrested on February 27, 1951, and held for 13 months in detention in connection with the so-called “bomb in the Soviet Embassy”, but was released due to lack of evidence. He was evicted from  his private house. In these conditions, he was forced to sleep in his bookstore, which he had opened in 1952. In 1965, he was “accepted” as an associate of the Institute of Linguistics, the sector of lexicology and lexicography. In 1995, the President of the Republic awarded him the Order “Naim Frashëri” of the first class, with the motivation “For the outstanding contribution to the development of Albanian sciences”. He left as a manuscript “Fjalor i orientalizmave në gjuhën shqipe ” Tirana, 2005, “Persizmat në gjuhën shqipe dhe studimi i tyre” Tirana, 2010. (In the photo: Tahir Dizdari)<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
