Dhërmi
Résumé
Dhërmi (Dhërmiu; Δρυμάδες, Drymádes) is a village in Vlorë County, Albania. It is part of the municipality of Himarë. The village lies 42 kilometers south of the city of Vlorë and about the same distance north of the southern city of Sarandë. It is built on a slope of the Ceraunian Mountains at approximately 200 meters in altitude, and comprises three neighborhoods: Gjilek, Kondraq, Kallami, and Dhërmi itself. The mountains descend to the southwest into the Ionian coast and Corfu in the distance to the south. Nearby is the village of Palasë. The local inhabitants of Dhërmi are ethnic Greeks that mainly speak a variant of the Greek Himariote dialect, and partly the Tosk Albanian dialect. During the last decade, the coastal area has seen a boom in the construction of accommodation facilities, such as wooden villa complexes.
The official Albanian name "Dhërmi" is mainly used by those inhabitants and seasonal workers who use either the Tosk or Gheg Albanian dialect. Many of these newcomers and seasonal workers moved to the Dhërmi from other parts of Albania during the socialist period (1945-1991) or more recently. On the other hand the Greek name of the village, "Drimades" or "Drymades" is mainly used by the inhabitants; in particular the ones who mainly use the local Greek dialect and partly the southern Albanian (Tosk) one.
In 1632 the first Albanian school in Dhërmi was founded by Greek Cypriot missionary Neophytos Rodinos. Also a Greek-language school, was founded in 1633 in Dhërmi by the same missionary.
Additional Greek schools operated by 1682 with the support of the local bishopric of Himara. During the 17th century (precise year is unknown) another Greek school (the Vizilios School) opened under the sponsorship of a local benefactor. In the 1898–1899 school season three Greek schools were operating: elementary, secondary and a girls' school.
Under the request of Himariots to the Pope of Rome, a new mission Basilian mission to Albania was launched in 1693.
