Summary: | In the remarkable constellation of prominent scientists of the Albanian world, without doubt, is included the scientist and professor, now deceased, Dr. Hasan Kaleshi. Professor Kaleshi was a true polyglot. It is known that he possessed several world languages such as Arabic, Turkish, Old Turkish, Persian, Italian, German, French, English, Bulgarian, Serbo-Croatian and, of course, also Albanian.The main place in his scientific activity was occupied by the Albanian historiography studies dealing with the history and culture of the Albanian people, especially those dealing with the role of various Albanian personalities in the Ottoman Empire. He is the author of several works on the life and patriotic activities, scientific, cultural and political of many well known figures in our national history, such as Sami, Abdul and Naim Frashëri, Ismail Qemali, Faik Konica, Haxhi Zeka, Fan Noli, Dr. Ibrahim Temos, Dervish Himes, Jahja Bej Dukagjini, Suzi Prizrenasit, Koci Beut and Sinan Pasha, Ali Pasha Gucise, Nexhip Dragës etc. Thanks to its continuous commitment, Hasan Kaleshi managed to shed light on many personalities from all Albanian territories, some of which were little known or not known at all. In conclusion we can say that Professor Kaleshi, as an expert in all those languages, as author and co-author of many works in the field of historiography, and beyond, had an enviable scientific culture. As such, he gave a very valuable contribution in general Albanian historiography.

Profesor Kaleshi ishte një poliglot i vërtetë. Dihet që ai zotëronte edhe disa gjuhë botërore, si: arabishten, turqishten, osmanishten, persishten, italishten, gjermanishten, frëngjishten, anglishten, bullgarishten, serbokroatishten dhe, natyrisht, edhe shqipen. Vendin kryesor në veprimtarinë e tij shkencore në historiografinë shqiptare e zënë studimet që kanë të bëjnë me historinë ... |
