Language and Identity in the Macedonian Village of Vrbnik with Christina Kramer and Virginia Stoymenoff
On April 13, 2003, Christina Kramer, professor of Slavic Languages & Literatures at the University of Toronto, and Virginia Stoymenoff, gave a brilliant presentation on their visit to the village of Vrbnik, in Southern Albania.
The presentation took place in the committee chamber at North York City Hall. This extremely valuable lecture enthralled the audience and was highlighted by a recent videotape from the village.
Both professor Kramer and Virginia Stoymenoff went to great lengths to visit Vrbnik, in Albania, and meet with its isolated Macedonian residents. The CMHS appreciates their efforts and congratulates them on a superb presentation.
