Apparent ly he gave RedChina an opportuni ty to profi tbu t Chinese a id to Albania i seven more difficult to deliverthan Soviet Russian . As a resu l t the whole quest ion of Albania i s a purely academic andideological quest ion and thej emphasis that has been p lacedj upon A lbania by al l th e Com-%nunist representat ives fromt h e E u ro p e a n c o u n t r i e s h a sbeen ordered by the Kremlin .Yet even by th is series of reasoning , the Albanian quest ioncan only form part o f somen e w s c h e me t h a t Kh ru s h c h e van . This was fostered by Stal in-) i s p reparing . What that schemeism and it did not .break evenWith the cond emna t ion . , o f"Marriera in Stal in ' s last yeqrs .Then when Khrushchev denounced Stal in and again t riedto make peace wi th Ti to , Albania sought for new sourcesof support and Hoxha foundthese ideological ly a t least inRed China . It was the Kremlinbel ief that there was more tobe gained wi th the sha rpeningo{ the co ld war from maneuvering wi th Ti to than in support ing an i so lated Albania which

would certa in ly be host i le toTi to whatever he d id and wouldbe, whatever happened , no realasset to the Communist d reamof paradise .

Itwas Western fo l ly that a l lowedAlbania to fall and it can onlybe freed when al l o f EasternEurope i s once more free andable to develop its own life.

(1 )With the spread of French revolu t ionary ideas and German

phi losophic thought to the Slav ic peoples in the 19th century ,a new era of nat ional i sm and reb i rth came to them. Ethnographers and wri ters and in te l lectual c i rc les became in terestedin thei r past and in thei r cu l tural p resent . Some went too farin thei r g lori ficat ion of thei r part icu lar Slav ic nat ional i ty . Butthere was hope in the a i r for the Slavs . With pride they spokeof a Slav ic federat ion . The impetus came main ly from theCzechs.The si tuat ion among the eastern Slavs was a b i t d i fferen tthan among the western Slavs . They l ived under the tyrannyof the St . Petersburg Czars who quenched al l asp i ra t ions forfreedom. Nicholas I, the "gendarme of Europe" was in powerfor the greater part o f the l i fe of Taras Shevchenko . Duringth is period of romant ic ism and nat ional i sm, Shevchenko wroteh is verse and formed h is thoughts about freedom for h is nat iveUkraine . He was a poet , a pain ter, bu t once had been a serf.He was an ideal i st and yet a real i st . This d ichotomy in h ischaracter flowed out in to h is bel iefs and thus in to h is works .One of Shevehenko ' s countrymen, Mykhai lo Drahomaniv .misunderstood h im and underrated h is ab i l i ty and signi ficanceto Ukraine . In 1878 . Drahom aniv wrote tha t Shevchenko had"no systemat ic v iew of l i fe and work . . ." because he had nothad a systemat ic educat ion . Drahomaniv d id not see in Shevchenko the mnkinge of a revolu t ionary leader because he wastoo much imbued wi th the Bib le and the idea of God ' s judgment . However, Drahomaniv d id admit that Shevehenko ' s poemscontained both romant ic and real i st ic e lements . He aleo admi t ted that Shevchenko was driven by h is own sad fa te in l i feand that o f Ukraine " to go the farthest in h is thoughts aboutfreedom in the sta te and society , and about the poor and therich."

Shevehen ko ' s posi t ion as a nat ional lead er and poet i s | yea rs . 1843 to 1845 . In these poems Shev chenk os more appar ent than h is ro le in the Pan-Slav m ovement . But a find out what led to Ukraine ' s downfal l , who caucarefu l examinat ion of h is works and l i fe show that he helpedto define and st reng then the U krain ian Pan- Slav movement by ei ther in the past o r the present , what i s to be thUkrain ian people and what i s to be done to achiedenning and st reng thening the posi t ion or meaning and goal for | fi rst poem of th is group , R ozry ta Mohyla (184s Bohdan Khmelnytsky for Ukraine ' s downryft (1844) he absolves Hetman Bohdan fda free Ukraine . In a sense, he made a synthesis of these twomovements, a l though the nat ional goal had to come fi rst . Itseems that the influence of Istoriya Rush (Rusov ) and theteachings of Skovoroda helped h im form such an out look . Istoriya Rusiv g lori fied the period of the hetmanate and t reatedUkraine as a separate nat ional en t i ty in i t s re la t ions wi th i t sneighbors, the Poles and the Russians . Skovoroda taught thephi losophy of "know thyself" in order to find t ru th . Shevchenkothought Skovoroda was a great myst ic , a l though not a goodpoet or a very good Ukrain ian since the la t ter wrote in Lat inand a mixture of Russian and Church Slavonic .Thus, Shevchenko bel ieved that i f Ukraine was to standup on i t s own, i t had to know i t sel f fi rst . This meant that i twould have to know i t s past g lories, bu t a lso i t s p resent problems. It was not enough tha t the in te l l igentsia and gen t ryshould know Ukraine ' s h istory and cu l ture . They must a lsolearn to know and love the narod , the fo lk of Ukraine . Throughth is bro therhood and t ru th , Ukraine would find freedom. Shecould then take her righ t fu l posi t ion among the Slav ic nat ionsand among al l nat ions . Shevchenko poin ted out in h is poemsthat because Ukraine was ind i fferen t to her fa te , she was a tfau l t ss wel l as Poland and Russia . To achieve her freedom.Ukraine would have to use t rad i t ion and new ideas . Broadly ,these are the main threads of Shevehenko ' s p lan for the reb i rth Of Ukraine .Al though Shevchenko speaks vehement ly many t imes in h ispoems about the Poles and Russians, he had read Pol ish andRussian l i tera ture and knew both languages. Whi le st i l l a serf,he l ived in Vi lna and Warsaw between 1829 and 1833 where helearned the Pol ish language and read Pol ish l i tera ture . He hadthe opportuni ty to see the Pol ish uprising of 1831 in Warsaw.He respected th is st riv ing for freedom and detested the hegemony of one nat ion over another. Later, th is was to develop in toa st rong desi re for Ukraine ' s freedom.In a group of poems cal led Try Li ta , Shevchenko t ries tofind out what i s wrong wi th Ukraine . These poems range from

He v isi ted Bodyansky in 1844, inJrthe la t ter had re turned from a t rip to the western chenko became in terested in the Czechs and in Jahero for freedom of thou ght . In 184 5 , Shevchenko Hus wri t ten by a pupi l o f Bodyansky . 'After seeing Bodyansky In 1844 , Shevchenkopoem Chyhyryn in that same year in Moscow. InShevchenko laments the decay of the free Hetmnotes the cause for th is as being Moscow's co ld , oppand the ind i fference of the people: , N o o ne s ay s a w or d .
