Abstract

As the example of the monks of Grottaferrata illustrates, Albanians and Italian-Albanians or Arberesh of Italy have a tradition of co-existence and a dialogue of life with other religious traditions. This community and especially the Bazilian community of Grotaferrata have been between East and West; between the Orthodox and the dominant Catholic community, creating as such a unique reality. Nevertheless, it did not succeed to communicate this unique form to the rest of nation that populated Albania.
