He said: "I have the great pleasure to communicate with you in these days, devoted to the book. I came across a small block with titles and dates of the books that I have read. In these notes there were the authors but there were no names of the translators. I wish to dedicate the today's lecture titled: "Përvujtnia (Humility)" to two translators, Mr. Pashko Gjeçi and Mr. Gjon Shllaku ". Further he emphasized the etymology of the word "humility", making a stroll in intellectual and philosophical opinion about this concept. For the participants he showed two humble stories of the translators´ lives. These two translators brought many masterpieces in Albanian languages.
This literary event was attended with interest by professors and students and they had discussions, questions and answers about the translation of the literary work.
