Demetrio Camarda (Arbërisht: Dhimitër Kamarda; 22 October 1821, in Piana degli Albanesi – 13 March 1882, in Livorno) was an Arbëreshë linguist, patriot of the Arbëreshë, and publisher of Albanian folklore, with scientific knowledge also in the field of Indo-European linguistics.[1]
Camarda, along with Girolamo De Rada were the main two initiators of the Italo-Albanian (Arbëreshë) cultural movement in Italy during the second half of the 19th century. He was the follower of the literary work already performed by Jeronim De Rada.[2] His main work, Test of Comparative Grammar on Albanian Language is the first scientific work of comparative historic study on the topic.[3] [4] He made an important contribution with the publication of The Albanian general alphabet in 1869.
