From there came the influence of writing Albanian with Cyrillic letters. A cultural orientation attempted to construct Albanian writing in original alphabets, in order to break away from foreign languages. This is represented by Gregory of Durres, by Dhaskal Todor who had been a pupil of Kavaliot, and as the author of Elbasan Anonymous is held Pope Totas, also the creator of the original alphabet. |url=https://books.google.se/books?id=9_gXTda0HS8C&pg=PA278&dq=grigori+i+durresit&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjd05PjksTlAhUNxYsKHT4vATwQ6AEIKzAA#v=onepage&q=grigori%20i%20durresit&f=false |accessdate=30 October 2019 |language=sq}}</ref>.

Later he worked in Venice with typographer Nikolaos Glykys. In 1744 Gregory founded the printing press of Voskopoja, brought from Venice, which he operated until its destruction in 1764, which was used for liturgical purposes<ref>{{cite book |last1=Llukani |first1=Andrea |title=ANTOLOGJIA E LETËRSISË SË KRISHTERE |date=2006 |publisher=Dr. Pavli Haxhillazi |location=Tirana |page=42 |edition=Translation: Metropolitan of Durres Grigori is thought to have been born in the year 1701 in Voskopoja. He studied at the "New Academy" and later became her professor. In 1740 she became a monk in Venice, where she taught the typographic craft from the Venetian printmaker Nikolaos Glykys. In 1744 Gregory founded the printing press of Voskopoja, which he led until its destruction in 1764. This the printing press was brought from Venice, where Albanian masters learned typography. The printing press of Voskopoja has 14 acolytes, which are used for liturgical purposes. |url=https://andreallukani.files.wordpress.com/2018/03/antologjia-e-letersise-se-krishtere.pdf}}</ref>. Gregory was a Metropolitan and clergyman and worked as a diocesan priest in 1740 and believed that keep Christian Albanian litterature in the library was necessary to resist Islamization<ref>{{cite book |title=Monumentet |date=1985 |publisher=Ministria e Arësimit dhe Kulturës, Instituti i Monumenteve të Kulturës |location=University of Minnesota |page=73 |edition=Translation: Intellectuals like Grigori i Durresit (1677-1772) or Papa Totasi thought that the saving of church literature was necessary to resist Islamization. |url=https://books.google.se/books?id=AI6NjCHVk2cC&dq=grigori+i+durresit&focus=searchwithinvolume&q=grigori |accessdate=30 October 2019 |language=sq}}</ref>. He was the first to translate the Old and New Testament into Albanian, using an alphabet invented by himself before 1772. His translations have been lost however. After the abolition of the Ohrid Patriarchate in 1768, he was appointed by the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople as Metropolitan of Durres<ref>{{cite book |last1=Shqipërisë |first1=Akademia e Shkencave e RPS të |last2=shqiptar |first2=Fjalori enciklopedik |title=Fjalor enciklopedik shqiptar |date=1985 |publisher=Akademia e Shkencave e RPSSH |page=1176 |edition=Translation: In 1768 he was elected bishop of Durres and was therefore called "Gregory of Durres". The last years apparently spent in the monastery of St. John near Elbasan. He wrote in Greek any religious or religious textbooks and speeches. |url=https://books.google.se/books?id=NDNBAQAAIAAJ&dq=grigori+i+durresit&focus=searchwithinvolume&q=grigori |language=sq}}</ref>. At the end of his life, he donated many books to the local library<ref>{{cite book |last1=Hysa |first1=Mahmud |title=Autorë dhe tekste nga letërsia e vjetër shqiptare |date=1995 |publisher=Flaka e vëllazërimit |isbn=9789989658068 |page=60 |edition=Translation: Books were donated by many scholars such as George Sina who donated many Greek and Roman books, Gregory of Durres who "at the end of his life dedicated all the valuable books in the library" and many Voskopoi emigrants. The library was destroyed in 1769 |url=https://books.google.se/books?id=BaFiAAAAMAAJ&q=grigori+i+durresit&dq=grigori+i+durresit&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjd05PjksTlAhUNxYsKHT4vATwQ6AEINDAB |accessdate=30 October 2019 |language=sq}}</ref>. He is said to have died in Venice in 1769. Another theory approximates his death in 1772 in Shen Gjon Vladimir ne Shijon in Elbasan. |
