Albania in the years 1928-1939 was marked by a period of great cultural development. Many Albanians who studied overseas in developed countries brought back best practices.

Literary and scientific books were written, translated, and published. The press played an important role in the revival of cultural life.

Music and theater played a major role in cultural revival, with singers Marije Kraja e Tefta Tashko, as well as art and sculpture with the great sculptor Odhise Paskali.
