Summary/Abstract: In this paper we deal with an overview of all fictional and factual works of Musine Kokalari, published from 1937 to 1970. Kokalari is the first Albanian writer who published the book "As my old mother tells me” in 1939. In its thematic scope, her work, both fictional and factual, is motivated and includes the world of women, either as a subject or as an object. This theme, in line with fiction, focuses on the description and narrative of the figure of the woman as a subject, with all its characteristics. Whereas, in the factual plane, the author becomes a subject herself and is tested in writing personal, autobiographical and critical narrative. Kokalari's fictional as well as factual texts are therefore related to the subject of the writing, so the most appropriate analysis is their division into statuses. In this paper, aside the brief review of each work of Musine as a linear process of writing, at the same time distinguishes the forms that defines the literary and factual discourse.
