  • Gibran Kahlil (Gibrān Khalīl Gibrān) Biography and Achievements (1883-1931)
    Institute of Lebanese Thought at Notre Dame University – Louaize, Lebanon Gibran Kahlil (Gibrān Khalīl Gibrān) Biography and Achievements (1883-1931) Prelude It goes without saying that Gibran Khalīl is one of the most prominent and famous Lebanese figures, known nationally and internationally. His good reputation was gained in two sectors: literature and art. His work, biography and personality draw interest and they were, until this day, piquing the curiosity of many researchers and scholars from all over the world. Many researches and studies were conducted on Gibran’s personality and work. In the valuable and elaborative analytical-synthetic study written by “Ghāzī Fūʾād Brax” on Gibran’s style in literature, personality and work, Brax classified all what was written about him in three categories1: the first one is when “the facts were mixed with illusions” and were written in a narrative style that was sometimes supportive (as in “Barbara Yang Book”2) and in other times was dominated by self-display (as Mīkhāʾīl Nuʿaymah’s book was critiqued3). In the second category, the authors avoided the previous mistakes; however, they sometimes succeeded and in other times failed (as in Jabr4 and other books). In the third category, they followed the scientific method, which has helped them to correct their previous mistakes and avoid roving (as with Khalīl Ḥāwī5 and Anṭūn Ghaṭṭās Karam6). 1 Brax, Ghāzī, Gibran Kahlil: An analytical-synthetic study on Gibran’s personality, art and achievements, Printing And Publishing House of An-Nisr Al-Mūḥalliq, Beirut, Lebanon, 1973, pp. 17-19. 2 Young, Barbara, This Man From Lebanon: A Study Of Kahlil Gibran, New York, A.A.

As an artist, Gibran created hundreds of drawings and paintings and as an author he wrote in both English and Arabic. Gibran died at the age of 48 in New York The Khalil Gibran Collection Volume I. Gibran was a hopeless romantic, he strongly believed in the power of generosity and in taking the best out of every experience, good or bad. Here are 26 Kahlil Gibran quotes to teach you about the deep meaning of love. Out of The Khalil Gibran Collection Volume I have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars. One day you will ask me which is more important? My life or yours? I will say mine and you will walk away not knowing that you are my life. If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. Your children are not your children. I have learned silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet strange, I am ungrateful to these teachers. Tenderness and kindness are not signs of weakness and despair, but manifestations of strength and resolution. No human relation gives one possession The Khalil Gibran Collection Volume I another—every two souls are absolutely different. In friendship or in love, the two side by side raise hands together to find what one cannot reach alone.

He said: "I think I've never been without The Prophet since I first conceived the book back in Mount Lebanon. It seems to have been a part of me I kept the manuscript four years be- fore I delivered it over to my publisher because I wanted to be sure, I wanted to be very sure, that every word of it was the very best I had to offer." The Chicago Post said of The Prophet: "Cadenced and vibrant with feeling, the words of Kahlil Gibran bring to one's ears the majestic rhythm of Ecclesiastes If there is a man or woman who can read this book without a quiet acceptance of a great man's philosophy and a singing in the heart as of music born within, that man or woman is indeed dead to life and truth."

In this thesis, I question whether the authenticity of modernism derives from its temporality period or its literary content while concurrently investigating several poems by Lebanese authors Kahlil Gibran and Nadia Tuéni and Syrian poet Adonis. Additionally, I trace Arabic modernism’s influence to the early 1900s-1910s to the conception of the Mahjar movement and the Pen League, an Arabic literary society consisting of Arabic immigrant writers.
