Summary/Abstract: Millosh Gjergj Nikolla – Migjeni is one of the Albanian writers who brought forth a new creative movement as well as motifs and themes that others neglect, shun or remain indifferent toward them. Hegel’s expression the tendency of art is to reveal the truth in the form of a sensitive artistic configuration seems to best suit Migjen’s art due to the fact that the thrusting truth of life in the environment and society in which it occurs is projected in his texts through fierce rebellion as well as deep pain and sensitivity which emanate from the soul and the heart, full of compassion, melancholy and sadness.On the other hand, his erotic poetry, the subject of this paper, delves into the intimate world of the poet, his complex experiences projected through sensations, wishes, dreams, pain, suffering, contemplation, fear and prayer. In these poems love is panegyrized (turned into hymn), feeling claims the highest pedestal, the erotic is aimed at but is also sanctified, at times becoming the internal thrust of the author, and at times the erotic object, the damsel. Eros is constructed by means of various motifs developed through diverse methods which create a rich spiritual world for the reader, pleasant and beautiful verse that ardently sings to the passion for love, for pleasure, for the beautiful, for a being that is as earthly as she is heavenly, the woman.
