On the face of it, a simple book of 26 poem fables sharing one man’s wisdom. But The Prophet is so much more than that. It has inspired people from John F Kennedy to The Beatles and became the '60s Bible of counterculture – all because of the timeless truths it shared. Each poem takes a different theme – pleasure, beauty, freedom, joy and sorrow – as the fictional Al Mustapha shares his thoughts and experiences as he prepares to travel back to his island home.

Almustafa has been exiled in the island city of Orphalese for twelve years when he sees his ship coming with the mist. Before he sets sail, the beloved prophet is asked by his followers to impart his truth. In these twenty-eight poetic essays, he offers profound inspiration on such matters of love and friendship, freedom and self-knowledge, joy and sorrow, pleasure, prayer, and death. In doing so, Almustafa offers a universal serenity. A Lebanese émigré to the United States, Gibran wrote The Prophet to transcend the barriers between East and West.

Une langue limpide, des images évocatrices et fortes: à travers l'enseignement d'Al-Mustafa se dessinent quelques-uns des trésors de l'expérience humaine. Rien n'échappe à la leçon du Sage: amour, joie, liberté, douleur, connaissance de soi, beauté, couple, passion, mort. La vie la plus intime, comme les problèmes les plus quotidiens. Hymne à la vie et à l'épanouissement de soi, Le Prophète s'impose désormais comme l'un des textes cultes du XXe siècle.

In seinem Buch "The Prophet" offenbart uns Kahlil Gibran zeitlose, universelle Lebensweisheiten, die auch heute noch im 21.Jahrhundert bemerkenswert zutreffend sind. Lily de Silva hat hiervon 18 Gleichnisse neu aus dem englischen Originaltext übersetzt und teilweise behutsam dem heutigen Sprachgebrauch angeglichen, um sie verständlicher zu machen. Kahlil Gibran wurde 1883 in Bisharri im Libanon geboren, doch noch während seiner Jugendzeit immigrierte seine Familie mit ihm nach Boston in Amerika, wo er dann im Jahr 1923 sein Buch "The Prophet" in englischer Sprache veröffentlichte.

The Prophet is a book of 26 prose poetry fables written in English by the Lebanese-American poet and writer Kahlil Gibran. It was originally published in 1923 by Alfred A. Knopf. It is Gibran's best known work. The Prophet has been translated into over 100 different languages, making it one of the most translated books in history, and it has never been out of print. The prophet, Al Mustafa, has lived in the city of Orphalese for 12 years and is about to board a ship which will carry him home. He is stopped by a group of people, with whom he discusses topics such as life and the human condition.

Kahlil Gibran's magnificent book, "The Prophet," stands as a cherished classic in our literary heritage. Gibran's contemplative reflections are artfully organized into twenty-eight chapters, each delving into expansive themes such as love, marriage, children, giving, eating and drinking, work, joy and sorrow, housing, clothes, buying and selling, crime and punishment, laws, freedom, reason and passion, pain, self-knowledge, teaching, friendship, talking, time, good and evil, prayer, pleasure, beauty, religion, and death.

Kahlil Gibran is the third best-selling poet of all time, behind Shakespeare and Lao-Tzu. Sand and Foam is a book of aphorisms, poems, and parables by the author of The Prophet - a philosopher at his window commenting on the scene passing below. In the Arab world, Gibran is regarded as a literary and political rebel. His romantic style was at the heart of a renaissance in modern Arabic literature, especially prose poetry, breaking away from the classical school. In modern Lebanon, he is still celebrated as a literary hero.

One of the most beloved classics of our time—a collection of poetic essays that are philosophical, spiritual and, above all, inspirational. Published in 1923, Gibran's masterpiece has been translated into more than 20 languages.

Kahlil Gibran reveals his vision of the soul and understanding of the world - past, present, and future - in this rich sampling of more than 20 works. Prose tales, fables, and poems evoke the mystic East and form a world at once powerful, tender, joyous, and melancholy. This collection, penned when Gibran was still a young writer, reveals many of the themes and styles plumbed throughout his life.

Kahlil Gibran wrote prolifically and passionately in Arabic as well as English. First published in 1965 with nine works of poetry translated by Joseph Sheban, Mirrors of the Soul includes writings by Gibran that are as poignant today as when first written, such as “The New Frontier” and “The Sea.” These poems illuminate the dual nature of Gibran, who lived in the shadows both of New York skyscrapers and the cedars of his childhood Lebanon.

While he is most famous for his didactic fable, The Prophet, the works of Kahlil Gibran (1883-1931) address a wide range of philosophical and social issues. The overriding theme of his narratives is not the religious universalism that he is supposed to represent, but rather the inevitable conflict between human aspirations and the remorseless machinations of fate.

Contained herein are two lesser known works. The Madman was the first book Kahlil published in English, and it's success was enough for The Forerunner to be released by the same publisher less than two years later.

जब आप दुःखी होते हैं तो फिर एक बार अपने हृदय में झाँकिए और आप देखेंगे कि वास्तव में आप उस चीज के लिए रो रहे हैं, जो आपकी खुशी का स्रोत था। आपमें से कुछ लोग कहते हैं, 'दुःख से बड़ा सुख होता है,"" और दूसरे लोग कहते हैं, ""नहीं, दुःख उससे भी बड़ा है। लेकिन मैं आपको कहता हूँ कि वे अवियोज्य हैं। दोनों साथ ही आते हैं और जब एक अकेला आपके साथ बैठता है तो याद रखिए कि दूसरा आपके बिस्तर पर सो रहा है।

Transcending religious boundaries to offer a deeply human perspective on the life, teachings, and enduring legacy of the revered figure, Gibran brings to life the story of Jesus Chris. He presents a fictionalized account of the life of Jesus Christ, through the eyes of 79 different accounts. A beautiful exploration of Jesus teachings, actions, and the influence he had on those around him.
