He studied at Eton College and the University of Cambridge for English literature, where he also obtained a Ph.D. in history in 1983. From 1981 to 1988, he was an external fellow at Gonville and Caius College, specializing in history, English literature, and philosophy. Later, he worked as a journalist and editor in the press. In 1995, he returned to scientific research activities. In 1999, he was elected chairman of the Anglo-Albanian Society; in 2001, he was elected to the British Academy, and in 2002, he was appointed Professor (Senior Research Fellow) at All Souls College at the University of Oxford. Noel Malcolm has published a series of studies on the history of the Albanians. His monograph &#8220;Kosovo &#8211; A Short History,&#8221; published in London in 1998, was reprinted in 1999 and translated into several languages \u200b\u200b(Albanian, Serbo-Croatian, Turkish, Bulgarian). Some of his other studies include &#8220;Notes on the Early History of a Catholic Albanian Clan,&#8221; &#8220;Crypto-Christianity and Religious Amphibianism in the Ottoman Balkans: The Case of Kosovo,&#8221; &#8220;Myths of Albanian National Identity: Some Key Elements, as Expressed in the Works of Albanian Writers in America in the Early Twentieth Century,&#8221; and &#8220;Albanian Identities: Myth and History.&#8221; Noel Malcolm was awarded the &#8220;Golden Medal of the Albanian League of Prizren&#8221; in Kosovo.<i> (Pictured: Noel Malcolm)<\/i><\/p>\n<p><strong>Text:<\/strong> <i>Albanian encyclopedic dictionary &#8211; Vol. 2 <\/i>Academy of Sciences of Albania, &#8220;Kristalina-KH&#8221;, Tirana, 2008, page 1614-1615.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Photo: <\/strong>\u00a9 https:\/\/www.washingtonindependentreviewofbooks.com\/index.php\/features\/an-interview-with-sir-noel-malcolm<\/p>\n<p><strong>Graphic processing: <\/strong>AHCF<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Noel Malcolm, an English historian with a significant contribution to illuminating the history of Kosovo, was born in Berkshire, England.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2542,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7569","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-ditelindje"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 -
