With the help of his friends, he published his Albanian translation of Aeschylus's Prometheus Bound and Antoine de Saint Exupéry's Wind, Sand and Stars. In 1989, he edited Tolstoy's War and Peace. In 1992 he co-authored the English-Albanian Polytechnical Vocabulary. In 1993 he published a translation of Shakespeare's sonnets into Albanian and in 1994, F. Dostoyevsky's Records from the House of the Dead. His verse translation of Dante's Inferno has been published only in excerpts. In 1998 he has also published Bashkebisedues Shqip anglisht (Albanian–English Conversations). Professor Kurti has focused on translating works by poets and writers such as Aeschylus, Dante, Dostoyevsky, Chalamov, and Havel to underscore his opposition to the violence exercised against human rights in his country and to contribute to the establishment of democratic thinking in Albania. Today, professor Kurti resides in New York City in which he continues to write and translate works into Albanian. His book Learn Albanian has sold in record amounts. His books are used in several American and UK universities. (en)
