Summary/Abstract: Eqrem Çabej is a great scholar (erudite) because of some his special qualities, which characterise his creative work as a whole and himself as a scholar and an intellectual. One of these qualities could be called as his manifold intellectual interests. With continuous attention he followed a series of fields of knowledge as for instance linguistics, philology, folklore, ethnography, history of literature, history of cul-ture. These varieties of his interests have determined the diversity of themes, and volume of his creative work, as well. Studying key, basic issues in his scientific work, Eqrem Çabej aims at achieving and he achieves far going objectives for Albanian people. In his work, for the first time in Albanian studies, it is built an entire aspect (truth), scientifically systemised, and deepened, about the origin of Albanian people, about their language, about their civilisation and culture. And, this truth is built on the basis of arguments fully scienti-fically. As it always happens in all great artistic and scientific works, the creative work of Eqrem Çabej surpasses simply scientific importance and, for Albanian people, obtains (gets) the national political and historical importance. Built on basic issues which fulfil the concept of nationality, it becomes supreme scientific protector of our national rights in histo-rical, cultural, political and territorial sense. Let be said here, at the same time that the creative work represents a most highest level until present days in which is upraised the national spirit in the field of science, in which he reaches European heights and amplitudes (wideness). As such, it becomes argument, undoubtedly most representative argument till present days in the field of science, of abilities of Albanian people to create a great science. It will remain a treasure of endless value which will always have an influence on Albanian conscience, culture and patriotism.
