The book fair, which opened its doors only a few days ago, is introducing the reader to a variety of genres for the reader.
One of these books is Klytemnërsa the great queen and goddess, with a mythological character, which was also presented at the book fair in Tirana.
The book is written by Nikos Stylos. A writer from Preveza and Camèrise, who for decades, as an archaeologist, has been digging into the depths of the centuries, in ancient languages, in Hellenic archaeohellenic books, especially in inscriptions on Etruscan vases, exhibited in the most famous museums in Europe.
Among the hundreds of inscriptions and thousands of words of myths and legends with the Greek, Latin and Etruscan alphabets, he singles out ancient word forms, which, comparing them with the neighboring languages of those times, he calls Tyrrhenian Pelasgian, or, in other words, Etruscan, meaning the content of which is broken down through Albanian.
With this extremely brave enterprise for scientific difficulties, as well as other difficulties, objective and subjective human, up to technical practice, he has taken on the role of a cultural missionary to discover the antiquity of the Albanian language, which he calls "my language Arvanite motherland", and, respectively, of the Albanian identity, left in fragments scattered under the natural and historical "floods".
His extraordinary will and passion, his tireless life search, his multidisciplinary knowledge, deliberately absorbed, his extensive bibliography in Greek, German, Albanian, English, has as a psychological and cultural justification the affirmation of his own identity, and all those who had and have the same mother tongue, Aravanite Albanian, but they have forbidden and denied it in different ways.
Who is Niko Stylos?
He was born in the village of Ftina in Preveza. He studied statistics in Italy and economics in Germany. He then worked as a restaurant interior designer.
He came into contact with the Greek language in the true sense of the word only at school. Whoever spoke Albanian at school was punished by the teachers. But this will not discourage him.
So he began to be interested in Arvanitish, that is, the Albanian language. He found Frang Bardhi's Latin-Albanian dictionary and this convinced him that what he was learning at school was not the truth. Rather, the truth was hidden from the Arvanites.
Later he himself will make important discoveries about Albanian history. In the hitherto undeciphered inscriptions in the Greek alphabet of the Mediterranean basin, many of them in the Etruscan language, Niko Stylos will decipher them through his native language and with the books he will write later he will extract a truth of hiding that these epigrams are in the ancient Albanian language.
Stylos is also the author of several other works with a historical and linguistic character, such as The sacred history of the Arvanites (Athens, 2003; Pristina 2004), Marko Boçari's Greek-Albanian dictionary (Tirana, 2007), The Greek-Albanian dictionary of Panajot Kupitori (Tirana, 2011), Etruscan-Toskrean (Tirana, 2011), Danil Voskopojar's four language dictionary (Tirana, 2011), and, now, (2023) Pelasgian, history, language, writing - Clytemnestra - queen and great goddess.
In addition to the unique cultural work, there are also counter-responses, in the cultural field, to the political ban-denial that others have done to his native identity, since childhood.
