SKENDER ASANI ~ NORA MALIQI ZYLALI ~ ALBERT RAMAJ
But in the case of the study "Albanian Catholic families in Skopje", from the authors Asani and Ramaj, the nature of the work itself is different and it becomes more difficult, precisely because of the fact that here we are dealing with a relict, which comes to us from the ancient past, and the same one still continues to breathe, though not as it once did. In this case authors are not only dealing with the past, but also with the factors that have influenced this community to come to this stage or condition that is today, which in the continuation of the text I will continue to call it as a Relict. And another task for the authors and all of us, is to answer to the question how to save it as a living relict. With the exception of the last one, all of these others whether directly in the text or between the lines are said by the authors. However I am trying to give an opinion of my own, always based on the book we are talking about, regarding the question of what were the factors that led to this condition. In our opinion there are three factors: 1. Historical circumstances and their vitality, 2. The former temporal role of the Catholic Church, and 3. The attitude of their compatriots in relation to this community.
