Summary "Albania: A Narrative of Recent Travel" by E. F. Knight is a travelogue written in the late 19th century. This work chronicles the author's explorations and experiences in Albania and its surrounding regions, highlighting the culture, landscapes, and intriguing encounters with its diverse inhabitants. The narrative aims to capture the essence of a relatively uncharted territory during a time of political transition and social complexity. The opening of the narrative introduces Knight's decision to embark on an expedition to Albania after being invited by a group of friends. Setting the scene in London, he describes the whimsical preparations for the journey, which include discussions about travel gear and weapons to take along. The group consists of artists eager to capture the unique scenery and cultures of an almost unknown land that has piqued Knight's curiosity, largely due to poetic references. As they begin their travels towards Venice and beyond, the narrative sets a light-hearted yet intriguing tone, establishing the author's anticipation for the adventure that lies ahead amid rich surroundings and local customs.
