        KAEF Staff
        American Councils

        Kosovo American Education Fund Launches Second Year
        
        Pristina, Kosovo (September 5) ? American Councils for
International
        Education is pleased to announce the launch of the second year of
the
        Kosovo American Education Fund (KAEF) Graduate Fellowship
Program.
        Professionals in Kosovo interested in advanced studies at U.S.
        universities can obtain information and access the on-line
application at
        the program?s website ? www.kaef-online.org.
        
        The KAEF Graduate Fellowship Program awards fellowships through a
        competitive process to qualified Kosovars for master?s-level
study in the
        United States. The purpose of the program is to support long-term
        development in Kosovo by enhancing a cadre of well-educated and
trained
        individuals in areas that would support economic growth and
investment in
        Kosovo. Fields of study, and areas of specialization, must relate
to this
        goal and are normally related to Business Administration,
Economics, Law,
        or Public Administration (for a full list of eligible fields of
study,
        please visit the program website).
        
        The first KAEF graduate fellows arrived to the U.S. in August
2005 and
        have begun their studies in the fields of Business Administration
and
        Public Administration at Duke University, Indiana University,
Monterey
        Institute for International Studies, Rochester Institute of
Technology,
        The George Washington University, and the University of Delaware.
        
        Candidates meeting the eligibility requirements may apply for a
KAEF
        fellowship beginning on Monday, September 5, 2005. The
application
        deadline is Friday, November 4, 2005. American Councils
anticipates
        awarding approximately 8-10 KAEF Fellowships for studies starting
in fall
        2006, providing full tuition support, a living allowance, a book
        allowance, professional development funds, medical insurance, and
        round-trip airfare. All KAEF fellows will also be required to
take part in
        a professional internship in the summer following their first
year of
        study.
        
        Short-listed candidates will be required to sit for a test of
English
        ability (TOEFL) and graduate entrance exams (GRE or GMAT) and be
        interviewed by a panel of U.S. experts. Tests and interviews will
be
        scheduled in January and February 2006 with final decisions being
made in
        April and May 2006 by a panel of U.S. academics and admissions
officers
        from leading U.S. universities. Depending on need, pre-academic
English
        training will be provided and fellows will depart to the U.S. in
August
        2006 for an opening conference in Washington, DC, before the
start of
        their academic programs. Master?s programs in the U.S. vary in
length from
        one to two years and most programs will lead to a master's degree
or
        certificate.

The Highland Lute - Lahuta e Malcis
AUTHOR:  Gjergj Fishta  

The most powerful and effective epic to have been written in Albanian for
which no English translation has previously existed. This is a unique
resource for students and scholars of Balkan studies and comparative
literature. "The Highland Lute" is the most powerful and influential epic
to have been written in Albanian. Enormously popular when it appeared in
the 1920s and 30s, it captivated the country with its vivid, archetypal
characters and panoramic descriptions: the backdrop to Albania's
historical battles for freedom and independence from the Turks and
Montenegrins. It propelled its author, Gjergj Fishta, to universal
recognition as the national poet of Albania until the Communists took
power in 1944. On its first public recital in post-Communist Albania, 45
years later, many in the audience still knew parts of it by heart. Robert
Elsie and Janice Mathie-Heck have achieved a masterful new translation,
the first complete version to appear in English, which captures the
spirit of the original and, accompanied by a new critical introduction,
will introduce the poem to a new generation of admirers.

bilingual Albanian-English translation of selected works of Visar Zhiti,
the celebrated Albanian poet, and was translated by Robert Elsie.  It can
be ordered through Amazon.com or via your favourite bookstore.

Editorial Reviews

Book Description

In this bilingual edition, Green Integer presents, for the first time in
English, the poetry of the greatest living Albanian poet. As Janice
Mathie-Heck makes clear in her introduction, Visar Zhiti lived a life of
great privation: locked away in dictator Enver Hoxha's prisons, Zhiti was
not allowed pencil or paper. He wrote his poems in his mind, and he and
other prisoners committed them to memory, in part to keep their sanity
and to enliven the terrible lives they were forced to bear. Only when
Hoxha fell from power and the political prisoners were freed was Zhiti's
poetry brought to print.
Now English-speaking readers can share in the remarkably gentle and
imagistically rich poems produced out of Zhiti's years of suffering.
The Condemned Apple : Selected Poetry (Green Integer)
