    Tregimet e Petro Markos, shkruar qė kur ishte 18 vjeē, deri nė vitet e fundit tė jetės, janė pėrmbledhur nė “Tregime tė zgjedhura”. Krijimtaria e botuar nė periodikė gazetash e revistash tė viteve 1931-1991, ishte ruajtur nė arkivat e Bibliotekės Kombėtare

    Petro Marko, 60 vjet fshehur nė arkivat e gazetave

    Alma Mile - Ndėrsa shfletonte ato faqe tė zverdhura nga koha, njė gulē lotėsh i mblidhej nė grykė. Bashkė me ato tregime qė s’i kishte lexuar mė parė, po zbulonte dhe njė pjesė tė jetės sė babait tė saj. Kishte dėgjuar shumė pėr jetėn e tij, por kur shihte ato shkrime nėpėr gazeta, gjithēka dukej mė e gjallė. Ndihej e mahnitur. Kishte qenė 18 vjeē atėherė, jetim, pa njė udhėrrėfyes, megjithatė, ai kishte ditur tė gjente rrugėn e vet. Arianita Marko, e bija e shkrimtarit Petro Marko, ėshtė njė nga pėrzgjedhėset e tregimeve qė janė pėrfshirė nė librin e sapobotuar nga “OMSCA 1”, “Tregime tė zgjedhura”. Nė kėtė pėrmbledhje, e para e kėtij lloji, janė pėrfshirė 48 tregime tė Markos, prej fillimit tė krijimtarisė sė tij nė vitin 1931, deri nė 1991, kur jeta e shkrimtarit u shua. Sipas Arianita Markos, kėto tregime janė mbledhur nėpėr fletėt e shtypit tė shkruar, arkivuar pranė Bibliotekės Kombėtare, drejtuesit dhe punonjėsit e sė cilės, janė treguar shumė tė gatshėm pėr tė ofruar tė gjithė ndihmėn e mundshme. Mbi kėto arkiva ėshtė punuar gjatė njė periudhe kohore 2 -mujore. “Ishin aq shumė tregime saqė e kemi pasur me tė vėrtetė tė vėshtirė pėr tė zgjedhur mes tyre. Megjithatė arritėm tė shkėpusnim njė numėr prej tyre, ato qė janė koherente edhe pėr ditėt e sotme. Bėhet fjalė pėr ato tregime tė cilat trajtojnė probleme qė i ndeshim edhe sot”, - thotė Arianita Marko. Dhe nė tė vėrtetė nė pjesėn mė tė madhe tė tregimeve qė pėrfshihen nė “Tregime tė zgjedhura”, trajtohet tema e emigracionit, tė cilėn vazhdojmė ta pėrjetojmė edhe sot. Vajza e valėve, me flokė tė zeza, shprishur nga era dhe sy tė mbushur me lotė, vazhdon tė presė mė kot e ulur nė breg tė detit, burrin qė t’i kthehet prej brigjeve pėrtej. Ashtu sikundėr viteve ’30, kur Petroja ishte njė djalė me kaēurrela, edhe sot, shumė vajza dhe gra presin me ankth burrat, vėllezėrit, fėmijėt, qė tė kthehen. Ndėrkohė qė njė tjetėr temė e trajtuar gjerėsisht prej tij, ėshtė varfėria, pėrpjekjet pėr tė mbijetuar, etj. Motivet e tregimeve ai i gjente nė fshatin e lindjes, nė njerėzit qė e rrethonin, kripa dhe aroma e bregdetit tė ashpėr tė Jonit, tek pėrditshmėria qė ishte e njėjtė dhe pėr ata qė jetonin nė Shqipėrinė e Mesme, apo nė veri. Duke qenė se bėhej fjalė pėr njė material mjaft tė bollshėm, i cili nuk mund tė pėrfshihej vetėm nė njė libėr, e bija e shkrimtarit ėshtė e mendimit qė tė vijojė botimi i tregimeve, apo i publicistikės, nė tė tjera pėrmbledhje. “Kjo pėrmbledhje, ėshtė vetėm fillimi i komunikimit me lexuesin, pasi mendojmė qė pjesėn e mbetur ta pėrfshijmė nė njė tjetėr botim”, - thotė Marko. Ndėrkohė qė drejtuesi i Shtėpisė Botuese “OMSCA 1”, Luan Pengili, shprehet mjaft optimist pėr veprėn qė sapo ka botuar. “Mund tė them me bindje tė plotė qė prej tė gjithė librave tė botuar nga shtėpia jonė botuese, veprat e Petro Markos janė tėrhequr prej lexuesve, mė tepėr se veprat e shkrimtarėve tė mėdhenj tė huaj. Ndėrkohė qė libri i sapobotuar mund tė konsiderohet si njė ndėr mė tė mirėt e shkrimtarit”, - thotė Pengili, i cili shton se shumė shpejt “OMSCA-1”, do tė nxjerrė prej botimit njė tjetėr libėr tė Markos, romanin “Stina e armėve”. Pėrveē stafit qė punoi pėr mbledhjen dhe pėrzgjedhjen e tregimeve, ndihmesė pėr botimin e kėtij libri ka dhėnė dhe Ministria e Kulturės Rinisė dhe Sporteve.

    Nė faqet e shtypit
    Pėr tė nxjerrė nė dritė “Tregime tė zgjedhura”, pėr muaj me radhė, janė shfletuar qindra gazeta qė ruheshin nė arkivat e Bibliotekės Kombėtare. Ato datojnė prej vitit 1931, kur Petroja ishte vetėm 18 vjeē, pėr tė kaluar mė pas nė shtypin e viteve ’60 dhe ’80. Ndėr gazetat dhe revistat e shfletura, ku dhe janė marrė 48 tregimet e pėrmbledhjes, janė “Ora”, ku shkrimtari ka botuar tregimet e para, gjatė viteve ‘31-’32. Pėr tė kaluar tek “Demokratia” nė vitin 1933, “Besa”, revista “Java”, “Drita”, “Pionieri”, “Hosteni”, revista “Nėntori”, “Ylli”, “Nė shėrbim tė popullit”, “Republika” nė vitin 1991. Pjesa mė e madhe e tregimeve janė qėmtuar nga gazeta kulturore “Drita”, gjatė viteve ’60 dhe ’80. Ndėrkohė qė brenda pėrmbledhjes “Tregime tė zgjedhura”, pėrfshihen 18 tregime tė shkurtra tė cilat Petro Marko i ka botuar gjatė vitit 1945, nė gazetėn “Bashkimi”, nė rubrikėn “Njė orė nė Tiranė”. Gjatė periudhės sė shfletimit tė arkivės, u grumbullua njė material mjaft i pasur nga krijimtaria letrare dhe publicistike e shkrimtarit, tė cilin “grumbulluesit” e tyre, kanė vendosur ta botojnė nė disa pėrmbledhje tregimesh.

    Mirela Sula: "Maps of pain - Harta e dhimbjes"

    Mirela Sula: "Maps of pain - Harta e dhimbjes", poezi. Sh.B. "Cabej", Tetove 2003, faqe 168. Mirela Sula Struga ka lindur ne Shkoder me 1975. Ka mbaruar studimet e larta per Gjuhe e Letersi ne Universitetin "Luigj Gurakuqi" ne Shkoder. Studimet pasuniversitare i ka vazhduar ne degen e Psikologjise ne Universitetin anglez "Sheffield". Tashti jeton dhe krijon ne Tirane.

    Mirela Sula ka bere emer te njohur ne letrat shqipe jo vetem si gazetare e analiste per ngjarje e fenomene kulturore e sociale por sidomos eshte shquar si poete e prozatore e suksesshme. Ajo eshte vleresuar ne konkurse kombetare e nderkombetare, sic eshte ai "Libro Italiano 2001" ne Itali, dhe "Ditet e veres 2002" ne Elbasan per poezine me te bukur.

    Ka punuar, (dhe vazhdon te punoje), si gazetare ne organe te ndryshme te shtypit shqiptar, duke u bere emer i njohur edhe ne kete fushe ne gjithe hapesiren etnike dhe me larg. Po me shume emrin e Mirela Sules do ta hasim neper antologji poetike, libra kritike dhe do ta gjejme neper shume manifestime te karakterit letrar duke depertuar me mjaft sukses labirintheve te letersise.

    Ka botuar disa libra si: "Leje per te jetuar"-poezi,(Tirane, 1995), "Te jetosh pergjysme"-proze, (Tirane, 1997), "Elvana"-proze, (Tirane, 1998), "Ani Piterpani"-poeme per femije, (Tirane, 2000), "Fundjave me Floren"-poezi, (Tirane, 2002), "Atje vonon pranvera"-poezi (Tetove 2002) "Hartat e dhimbjes"-poezi, (Tetove, 2003), si dhe eshte pjesemarrese ne dy antologji: "Syri i ujt' i Struges", (Struge, 2003), dhe "Horizonti" (Itali, 2003) apo ne antologjite e manifestimeve nderkombetare letrare "Hapa neper nate", Tetove 2003, "Stili" Shkup 2002 etj.

    * * *
    Libri poetik "Hartat e dhimbjes", me i fundit i poetes Mirela Sula, perbehet si nje teresi permbajtesore me gjithsejt 52 poezi, te cilat jane perkthyer ne gjuhen angleze nga Ukzenel Bucpapa. Poezia e Mirela Sules eshte poezi e ndjenjes e cila shfaqet lirshem, ka nje strukture ndertimi, me shprehje te nuancuara qe imponohet si nje rutine e ndjenjave, qofshin intime apo te pergjithshme konforme zhvillimeve te perditshmerise. Poezia lind si e tille, intime dhe buron nga vetvetja, por kur publikohet behet pjese e pergjithshme, ndersa lexuesi do te veneron me lehtesi sinqeritetin krijues. Ne librin "Hartat e dhimbjes", poetesha Mirela Sula temat nuk i gjen ne treg e prane bulevardeve, ato jane frymezime filozofike, figura reale qe i gjen tek e perditshmja, aspak abstrakte dhe nuk ka perdorur format e poezise se mbyllur as zhanrin konformist. Temat pergjate librit vijne reale, perjetime autoriale por qe me mjeshtri jane ngritur ne nivelin e poezise duke provokuar edhe mendimin, (jo vetem te lexuesit te rendomte), por edhe te kritikes letrare. Metaforat e shumta dhe forma hiperbolike te perdorura me elegance dhe mjeshteri te krijojne idene se Mirela ka trash-guar nga vendlindja (Shkodra e lashte), kulture dhe eshte e pajisur me menyren shprehese duke e bere poezine e saj te dalluar! "Mbi trupin tim, peme-degethyer/ ndertojne fole krahethatet, zogjte./ Une vete, trung i kerrusur nga gerryerjet,/ nga casti ne cast i trembem rrezimit", poezia "Parandjenje", faqe 25.

    Ndersa te poezia "Kotesi", Sula e zhvillon me tutje meditimin e saj letrar qe nuk mbetet vetem ne nivelin e thjeshte te nje metafore apo te nje shprehje poetike. Mendimi i sajuar ngrihet mbi perceptimet psikologjike duke u bere si nje predikuese e nje rryme te re letrare nese mund te quhet si "psikopoezi". Psh. te poezia "Kotesi" ajo preferon nje forme te tille: Testi-pyetja e pare niset nga vetvetja psh. Gjera te asgjeshme/ me detyrojne/ te sillem/ rreth asgjese./ Teper e varfer egoja ime/ per te korrigjuar gabimet/. Testi-pyetje e dyte jane vargjet: Dicka e gjithesishme/ me largon/ prej gjithckaje./ Kaq pjellore egoja e te tjereve/ per te m'i kthyer virtytet". Poezia mbyllet duke zbuluar epilogun e rrefimit me dy vargjet e fundit te kesaj poezie: "S'e di pse ende me ndjekin,/ kur asgje s'me ka mbetur".

    Nder poezite qe shquhen per kete mendim psikologjik dallojne: "Vizion per boten dypamesore", "Padrejtesi", ...me rastin e 26-vjetorit..." etj. Po ashtu Mirela Sula ka te zhvilluar instinktin e poezise meditative, si dhe mjaft lirika te pelqyera te cilat aty ketu marrin edhe nuancime erotike.

    Nuk do te thote se ne kete qasje keshtu kalimthi kemi arritur t'i shoshitim dhe t'i theksojme te gjitha vlerat e librit. Jo. Ne kete rast ne vetem kemi permendur provokimet e rastit ne castin e njohjes se pare me poezine e Mirela Sules, asgje me shume. Sepse ajo ka pershkruar ne menyre fenomenale edhe te zakonshmet, (ngjarjet e perditshmerise) te cilat na jane bere vecse duke prezentuar portretin (nacional?!) si nje falsitet i shemtuar. Por me mire se sorollatja per te gjetur nocion perkates flasin vete vargjet: "Ka ardhur koha/ t'i flakim vogelimat/ qe na lekundin ne jete,/ forca te dukshme dhe te padukshme/ vazhdojne te na shtyjne/ ne falsitet...", sekuenca te ketij mendimi ka perplot, madje edhe librin simbolikisht (dhe jo krejt rastesisht) e ka mbyllur "Brenda njeri-tjetrit/ ne heshtje asgjesojme/ cfare s'na takon./.../Kaq mjerane/ shtyhemi/ ne kete mosjete".

    Amazon Glitch Unmasks War of Reviewers

    marre nga NYTIMES.COM


    lose observers of Amazon.com noticed something peculiar this week: the company's Canadian site had suddenly revealed the identities of thousands of people who had anonymously posted book reviews on the United States site under signatures like "a reader from New York."

    The weeklong glitch, which Amazon fixed after outed reviewers complained, provided a rare glimpse at how writers and readers are wielding the online reviews as a tool to promote or pan a book — when they think no one is watching

    John Rechy, author of the best-selling 1963 novel "City of Night" and winner of the PEN-USA West lifetime achievement award, is one of several prominent authors who have apparently pseudonymously written themselves five-star reviews, Amazon's highest rating. Mr. Rechy, who laughed about it when approached, sees it as a means to survival when online stars mean sales.

    "That anybody is allowed to come in and anonymously trash a book to me is absurd," said Mr. Rechy, who, having been caught, freely admitted to praising his new book, "The Life and Adventures of Lyle Clemens," on Amazon under the signature "a reader from Chicago." "How to strike back? Just go in and rebut every single one of them."

    Mr. Rechy is in good company. Walt Whitman and Anthony Burgess both famously reviewed their own books under assumed names. But several modern-day writers said the Internet, where anyone from your mother to your ex-agent can anonymously broadcast an opinion of your work, has created a more urgent need for self-defense.

    Under Amazon's system, any user may submit a review without publicly providing any personal information (or evidence of having read the book). The posting of real names on the Canadian site was for many a reminder that anonymity on the Internet is seldom a sure thing.

    "It was an unfortunate error," said Patricia Smith, an Amazon spokeswoman. "We'll examine whatever happened and make sure it won't happen again."

    But even with reviewer privacy restored, many people say Amazon's pages have turned into what one writer called "a rhetorical war," where friends and family members are regularly corralled to write glowing reviews and each negative one is scrutinized for the digital fingerprints of known enemies.

    One well-known writer admitted privately — and gleefully — to anonymously criticizing a more prominent novelist who he felt had unfairly reaped critical praise for years. She regularly posts responses, or at least he thinks it is her, but the elegant rebuttals of his reviews are also written from behind a pseudonym.

    Numbering 10 million and growing by tens of thousands each week, the reader reviews are the most popular feature of Amazon's sites, according to the company, which also culls reviews from more traditional critics like Publishers Weekly. Many authors applaud the democracy of allowing readers to voice their opinions, and rejoice when they see a new one posted — so long as it is positive.

    But some authors say it is ironic that while they can for the first time face their critics on equal footing, so many people on both sides choose to remain anonymous. And some charge that the same anonymity that encourages more people to discuss books also spurs them to write reviews that they would never otherwise attach their names to.

    Jonathan Franzen, author of "The Corrections," winner of the National Book Award, said that a first book by Tom Bissell last fall was "crudely and absurdly savaged" on Amazon in anonymous reviews he believed were posted by a group of writers whom Mr. Bissell had previously written about in the literary magazine The Believer.

    "With the really flamingly negative reviews, I think it's always worth asking yourself what kind of person has time to write them," Mr. Franzen said. "I know that the times when I've been tempted to write a nasty review online, I have never had attractive motives." Mr. Franzen declined to say whether he had ever given in to such temptation.

    The suspicion that the same group of writers, known as the Underground Literary Alliance, had anonymously attacked his friend Heidi Julavits prompted the novelist Dave Eggers to write a review last August calling Ms. Julavits's first novel "one of the best books of the year."


    Page 2 of 2)



    Mr. Eggers, whose memoir, "A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius," made him a literary celebrity, chose to post his review as "a reader from St. Louis, MO." But the review appeared under the name "David K Eggers" on Amazon's Canadian site on Monday, and Mr. Eggers confirmed by e-mail that he had written it.

    "I've done that one or two times before, when I like a book and the reviews on Amazon seem bizarre," Mr. Eggers said. "In this case I just tried to bring back some balance."

    Michael Jackman of the Alliance, which champions "underground writing" and has been critical of contemporary writers' focus on themselves rather than the wider world, called the presumption that his group had written the anonymous reviews "the height of arrogance."

    "It's interesting that they find some negative reviews and assume that the reason for it must be partisan ax-grinding and not real taste," Mr. Jackman said. "I mean, there's no accounting for taste, is there?" Whether it is arrogance, paranoia or simply common sense, positive reviews come under suspicion, too.

    "Could the five-star reviews (so far all but one from NY, NY) be the work of the author's friends?" asked a one-star review by "A reader from Washington, DC" on the review page for Susan Braudy's "Family Circle," a biography of Kathy Boudin, the former member of the Weather Underground, and her family.

    Reviews are not the only features writers take advantage of to improve their image on Amazon. Many have been known to list their own books as alternate recommendations for any given book, and to compile lists of favorite books with their own at the top. Not unlike authors who have manipulated newspaper best-seller lists by buying copies of their own books, one ordered books through Amazon to raise his ranking there.

    Books are far from the only products subject to anonymous reviewing these days. The growth of electronic commerce has spawned a new kind of critical authority — one's peers. On Amazon alone, customers depend on one another for advice on CD's, DVD's, garden tools and electronic equipment. On dozens of other Web sites, average citizens anonymously review restaurants, software, even teachers.

    The word-of-mouth advice is widely seen as empowering to consumers who no longer have to rely on privileged critics with access to a television station or printing press to disseminate their opinions. But the reliability of the new authorities is the subject of increasing debate, at least among active Amazon users.

    As the Amazon sites expand their visitors are seen as an increasingly important. Mark Moskowitz, an independent filmmaker, sent an e-mail message to about 3,000 people this week asking them to review the DVD of his film "Stone Reader," which goes on sale soon.

    "If you didn't see it but heard it was good, go ahead and post anyway, (what the heck)," Mr. Moskowitz told them. "It doesn't obligate you for anything, even the truth."

    Despite the widespread presumption that the reviews are stacked, both readers and writers say they affect sales, especially for new writers whose books are not widely reviewed elsewhere.

    To increase the credibility of the reader reviews, Amazon has introduced a means for users to vote on the quality of each review, and a corresponding ranking of the top 1,000 reviewers. But the site's discussion boards are full of carping about how people are trying to play that system, too. Many prolific reviewers speculate that Harriet Klausner, 55, who has long reigned as No. 1, cannot possible read all the books she reviews.

    In a telephone interview, Ms. Klausner, in turn, accused the No. 2 reviewer of getting people to vote for him and against her in a "desperate attempt to be No. 1."

    But such concerns among reviewers pale beside those shared by a range of naturally obsessive authors.

    Late last month on her radio talk show, Dr. Laura Schlessinger used a call about an anonymous letter to vent her distress over some of her Amazon reviewers, who she described as "scummy, creepy people."

    The feminist author Katha Pollitt mentioned in a recent New Yorker article that she had considered anonymously posting a nasty review on her ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend's Amazon page, but refrained from doing so. In an interview, however, she said she had chastised a friend whose book had no reviews on Amazon when it came out, telling her to have friends to post some. The friend followed her advice, but Ms. Pollitt was disappointed. "I'm thinking what kind of friends are these? They've only written one sentence."

    The novelist A. M. Homes said the one Amazon review that had stuck in her mind was a negative one from someone who signed off "A reader from Chevy Chase," which is her hometown.

    "The world of books is a very small world these days, and any time someone takes the time to share their opinion it's incredible," Ms. Homes said. "But I do want to know who that person from Chevy Chase was and what their problem with me really is."

    Dje ne emisionin e lajmeve te darkes pashe nje kronike mbi nje veprimtari letrare qe ka filluar prej disa kohesh. Behet fjale per krijimin e nje librarie boterore, qe funksionon e bazuar ne "tre R" (te anglishtes):


    -Read a good book (you already know how to do that)

    -Register it here (along with your journal comments), get a unique BCID (BookCrossing ID number), and label the book

    -Release it for someone else to read (give it to a friend, leave it on a park bench, donate it to charity, "forget" it in a coffee shop, etc.), and get notified by email each time someone comes here and records journal entries for that book. And if you make Release Notes on the book, others can Go Hunting for it and try to find it!



    Veprimtaria e ka gjetur origjinen tek nje ndermarrje programimi dhe zhvillimi te internetit me qender ne Kansas city, Missouri dhe Sandpoint, Idaho.

    Me shume per kete veprimtari, per menyren e funksionimit te saj, per ate sesi mund te merrni pjese edhe ju vete, etj., mesoni ne faqen:
