Historia de vita et gestis Scanderbegi, Epirotarum Principis (1508-1510) “The History of the life and works of Scanderbeg, the prince of Epirotes” by the humanist and priest from Shkodra is the most complete expression of development of our nation in a special phase of our past. It is a synthesis of development of entire Albanian culture in XV century. Its place in the history of Albanian culture forever will be very important and irreplaceable.
