In the next issue: TEODOR KEKO AND MITRO ÇELA NEXT ISSUE: “THE ENIGMA OF ART” Throughout all the months at the beginning of 1987, the slogans on the walls of factories, institutions and schools, those slogans unchanged throughout this 45-year period, continued against a backdrop of sluggish calm. Very few conversations among people in official settings, just as little interest in family gatherings for politics, the cold mornings of Tirana began with the usual rush to catch the bus, and just as bleakly, they returned home in the evenings, waiting for the TV news bulletin to hear again what the whole people had always said and already knew. And it could not have been otherwise. Albania was in the period of the dictator's political legacy. In his speech on 13 January 1987, Ramiz Alia took care to state that the path that had been set out would not be touched. To know and openly speak against isolation and its consequences would mean speaking against the Party. It was a time when very few people imagined that the final hour of communism had arrived. [EN] In the next issue: Teodor Keko and Mitro Çela, “The Enigma of Art.” Throughout the first months of 1987, the familiar slogans on the walls of factories, institutions and schools continued unchanged against a background of lethargic calm. Albania was in the period of the dictator's political inheritance, and very few people imagined that the final hour of communism had arrived. [IT] Nel prossimo numero: Teodor Keko e Mitro Çela, “L'enigma dell'arte.” Durante i primi mesi del 1987, i consueti slogan sui muri di fabbriche, istituzioni e scuole continuavano immutati sullo sfondo di una calma apatica. L'Albania si trovava nel periodo dell'eredità politica del dittatore e pochissime persone immaginavano che fosse arrivata l'ultima ora del comunismo.

The third time in the hall, buried with ceremony. Thousands of people were taking part in this event, which had been known for a long time. Their closing drew the eyes of the curious. It was not an everyday thing for such a corpse to be buried. Although the delay was exceeding every limit, the senior officials still had not decided whether it should be buried with honors and ceremony or without them. The deceased, whose body was being escorted to its final resting place, had died in the winter of '85, but this fact had been kept secret and had not been made public. Under these circumstances, the question of how the ceremony should be conducted was quite difficult. To bury him with great honors would mean that the organizers were declaring that the death had been merely natural and that the deceased had left this life only as a result of the inevitable laws of biology. To leave him without honors would mean, on the contrary, that he had died in unnatural circumstances, that he had been killed and that the perpetrators were trying to hush up the event. The organizers of the ceremony were trying to cover up, as best they could, the traces of such a predicament. In the end, a middle solution was chosen. [EN] We reflect after one year. The third time in the hall, buried with ceremony. Thousands were taking part in this action, long known in advance. The text uses the metaphor of a delayed funeral to reflect on a political death kept hidden since the winter of '85 and on the ambiguities surrounding the public ceremony. [IT] Riflettiamo dopo un anno. La terza volta nella sala, sepolta con cerimonia. Migliaia di persone partecipavano a questo atto, noto da tempo. Il testo usa la metafora di un funerale ritardato per riflettere su una morte politica tenuta nascosta dall'inverno dell'85 e sulle ambiguità della cerimonia pubblica.
