Lazarus and his Beloved | Kahlil Gibran

Kahlil Gibran (full Arabic name Gibran Khalil Gibran with the more standard spelling Khalil;[a] Arabic: Jubrān Khalīl Jubrān or Jibrān Khalīl Jibrān;) (January 6, 1883 – April 10, 1931) was a Lebanese-American craftsman, artist, and essayist. Conceived in the town of Bsharri in the north of advanced Lebanon (at that point some portion of Ottoman Mount Lebanon), as a youngster he moved with his family to the United States, where he examined craftsmanship and started his artistic profession, writing in both English and Arabic. In the Arab world, Gibran is viewed as a scholarly and political radical. His sentimental style was at the core of a renaissance in current Arabic writing, particularly composition verse, splitting ceaselessly from the traditional school. In Lebanon, he is as yet celebrated as an abstract legend. He is mostly known in the English-talking world for his 1923 book The Prophet, an early case of rousing fiction including a progression of philosophical expositions written in idyllic English composition. The book sold well in spite of a cool basic gathering, picking up prevalence during the 1930s and again particularly during the 1960s counterculture. Gibran is the third top of the line artist ever, behind Shakespeare and Lao-Tzu. Wikipedia
