Gibran’s philosophy of life, his reputation of feudal oppression, male chauvinism and religious hypocrisy, rings through all his works.
By Kahlil Gibran
Probably the most widely read and discussed mystic poet- philosopher of the last century, kahlil Gibran, born in Lebanon in 1883, spent most of his life in America. Besides attaining success as an artist in the symbolist tradition, it was here that Gibran found his calling “to write for the soul,” an enthusiastic patron in Mary Haskell and, soon after, recognition as modern-day mystic .The lucidity of his worldview endeared him to a wide range of readers the world over, but particularly in America, where he influenced the popular culture in the sixties .His writings have not only inspired and influenced generations together but also have made the entire realm of high philosophy much simpler and graspable for the common reader .
Gibran’s philosophy of life, his reputation of feudal oppression, male chauvinism and religious hypocrisy, rings through all his works. This collection brings together three of his representative works, Tears and Laughter, prose poems, and Sand and Foam, aphorisms, and the only novelette he ever wrote, The Broken Wings.
