Abstract

This article brings new facts about the first journalism editions in Albania.
Thanks to Turkish historians, our public can learn that the “İshkodra” newspaper was published 11 years earlier than what Albanian bibliographers of the Albanian press claim.
Thus, “İshkodra” was first published in 1868 and re-published in 1879. This postponement to 11 years makes the “İshkodra” newspaper the first one published in the Albanian territories, earlier than the “Prizren” newspaper that was published in August 1871. 1971.
Although published only in the Ottoman language, “İshkodra” marks the first print of journalism in Albania, while Shkodra becomes the first town where the first printing press started, which issued publications for its citizen, a luxury commodity for the enlightened residents.
