Summary/Abstract: The Other, as an independent and neutral existence, in essence constitutes the purest and most important conceivable form of disparity. In the absence of this, they interfere with the conjunctive forms of the enemy, the foreigner, and the stranger. A national literature can impact the emancipation of its own public only if it succeeds in overcoming unconventional non-conformational appearances and stabilize a certain perception of the other such as a person.We will try to sketch such a phenomenology, in two directions: in relation to the narrator and the internal relation between the characters.Phenomenology will have a critical perspective, based on the premise that the presence of the other in itself, in the Albanian literature is deficient.
