Albania to Kosovo: Don’t insult Qosja POLEMIC / HEAD OF KOSOVO’S “SCIENCES”: THE WRITER IS HYPOCRITICAL AND INTRIGUING Rexhep Qosja called the Academy a “neighborhood clique.” Hivzi Islami replies: You are a pollutant, sick and a troublemaker. 37 intellectuals in Albania react: Qosja, a polymath By FATMIRA NIKOLLI A full 37 Albanian academics and professors have signed an open letter, through which they speak out against the accusations that the head of the Kosovo Academy of Sciences, Hivzi Islami, has made against academic Rexhep Qosja. In a heavily [?] article, Islami described the professor as hypocritical, slanderous, intriguer and a divider of the nation. Academics such as Muzafer Korkuti (president of the Academy of Sciences), Jorgo Bulo, Arben Puto (historian), Rexhep Meidani (former president), Luan Omari, as well as professors such as Paskal Milo and Pellumb Xhufi, have described the accusations as unprincipled and a model of intellectual misery, while noting that Qosja is a polymathic personality. As part of the Albanian scientific and cultural community, they express regret over the degradation of freedom of expression into open verbal aggression, with insinuations and personal accusations that fall outside the framework of normal scholarly debate.
