Kahlil Gibran Books

This volume collects two masterpieces by Kahlil Gibran. The Prophet, first published in New York in 1923, sparked both criticism and enthusiasm, reflecting its profound impact. The author intended it to be the first part of a trilogy exploring humanity's relationship with itself, nature, and God. The second part, The Garden of the Prophet, remains unfinished and was published posthumously, while the third was never written. The verses delve into the human soul with poetic sensitivity and visionary strength, evoking the works of Blake, Nietzsche, Indian mystics, and Islamic ascetics. This nearly legendary work encapsulates the teachings of the prophet, offering genuine pearls of wisdom that have illuminated many minds and softened hearts. It serves as a kind of "mystical breviary" filled with poetic insights on life's realities: marriage, children, work, homes, joy and sorrow, buying and selling, knowledge, and teaching.

For the first time, all the major works of this beloved writer are gathered together in one volume. Poet, artist, and mystic, Kahlil Gibran was born in 1883 to a poor Christian family in Lebanon and immigrated to the United States as an adolescent. His masterpiece, The Prophet, a book of poetic essays that he began while still a youth in Lebanon, is one of the most cherished books of our time and has sold millions of copies in more than twenty languages since its publication in 1923. But all of Gibran’s works—essays, stories, parables, and prose poems—are imbued with equally powerful simplicity and wisdom, whether they are addressing marriage or children, friendship or grief, work or pleasure. Perhaps no other twentieth-century writer has touched the hearts and minds of so remarkably varied and widespread a readership. Included in this volume are The Prophet, The Wanderer, Jesus the Son of Man, A Tear and a Smile, Spirits Rebellious, Nymphs of the Valley, Prose Poems, The Garden of the Prophet, The Earth Gods, Sand and Foam, The Forerunner, and The Madman.

Early in this century a Lebanese poet, Kahlil Gibran, produced a book that has become universally known and loved for its beauty and the timeless themes it addresses. But because Gibran was a poet, not a mystic, in The Prophet he could give us only a work of imagination, a glimpse into the dream that is the mystic's everyday reality. The Messiah, Osho's two-volume commentary on The Prophet, must find itself as a companion to Gibran's work in the hands of every lover of truth and beauty. In this volume Osho speaks on the themes that Gibran addresses through the fictional prophet, love, children, giving, work; eating and drinking, and clothes; joy and sorrow; houses and homes, buying and selling; crime and punishment.

For Kahlil Gibran, love was a way--perhaps the supreme way--of achieving self-realization and completeness as a human being. "The Beloved" is about transforming one's own life through love's all-consuming power. These exquisite writings on love, marriage, and the spiritual union of souls adds a fresh dimension to our understanding of the philosophy of love and its role in contemporary society.

Khalil Gibran, a Lebanese-born artist and poet, faced poverty in his youth, which limited his formal education. Despite this, he received instruction from priests in biblical studies and languages, nurturing the ideas that would later shape his literary career. His experiences and early teachings influenced his renowned works, including The Prophet, conceived during his formative years, and The Madman, published in 1918. Gibran's unique background and self-education played a crucial role in his artistic development and literary legacy.

Includes The Madman, The Forerunner, The Prophet, Sand and Foam, Jesus the Son of Man, Earth Gods, The Wanderer, The Garden of the Prophet, Prose Poems, Spirits Rebellious, Nymphs of the Valley and A Tear and a Smile.

Told with great good humor and worldly compassion, and with illustrations by Kahlil Gibran, The Book of Khalid recounts the adventures of two young men, Khalid and Shakib, who leave Lebanon for the United States to seek their fortune in turn-of-thecentury New York. Together, they face all the difficulties of poor immigrants—the passage by ship, admittance through Ellis Island and the rough immigrant life. Khalid, always the dreamer, tries to participate in the political and cultural life of the teeming city—to often humiliating and comic result. Tiring of their sojourn, he convinces Shakib they should return to Lebanon. But their heads are now full of New World ideas. And Khalid, trying to improve his brethren, turns his understanding of Western thought into a call for political progress, and religious unity and tolerance in the Arab world. A call that has him, accidentally, almost founding a new religion—and almost becoming its first martyr, when his ideas incite the faithful to riot. Playing with classical Arabic literary forms, as well as Western literary conventions, Ameen Rihani’s The Book of Khalid is a unique contribution to American and World literature.

Gibrán es ante todo una mística al modo oriental, en su desasimiento del mundo y su apetencia de una calidad superior. Un impetuoso anhelo de descarnación, en el que se puede reconocer algún eco del Rubaiyat, está presente en todos sus libros. Pero aparte de esta tónica mística y como un arabesco sobre ella, corre por toda su obra una sutil vena de ironía incisiva y amarga, netamente occidental, difícil de hallar en la vieja literatura de Oriente.

... Me gustaría abrirme el pecho, sacarlo de allí y cargarlo en mis manos, para que todos pudieran verlo. Porque no hay deseo mayor en un hombre que revelarse a sí mismo... De Kahlil Gibran a Mary Haskell, 10 de noviembre de 1911 ... La vida es generosa, y el hombre es mezquino. Parece que existe un abismo entre la vida y el ser humano, y —para atravesar este abismo— es necesario tener el coraje de tocar la propia alma, y cambiarla de dirección. ¿Valdrá la pena? De Kahlil Gibran a Mary Haskell, 5 de abril de 1914 El amor es consciente de sí mismo. Es un impulso creativo; no tiene otro propósito más que bastarse a sí mismo. El ser humano es perfecto en sus imperfecciones. Debo aceptar que, cuando alguien se mueve muy lentamente en determinada dirección, se debe a que es la única manera que tiene de recorrer ese camino. Lo mismo ocurre con el amor. De Kahlil Gibran a Mary Haskell, 21 de abril de 1920

Racconti, poesie e aforismi condensano le verità senza tempo, che sanno parlare a tutti, di Kahlil Gibran intorno ad argomenti come il sentimento d'amore, lo splendore dell'amicizia, la bellezza della morte, la ricchezza e il dolore, l'ambizione e il destino. Gli scritti del "Profeta del Libano" possiedono un particolare sapore di antica saggezza che sa fondersi con l'attualità del suo pensiero, per quanto le due cose possano sembrare incompatibili. Scrittore di fine intelligenza, sviluppa parabole sulle grandi questioni dell'esistenza, immergendosi nelle profondità del misticismo. Nel suo stile semplice, essenziale, lapidario, sa spaziare dalla tenerezza che dà sollievo allo spirito alla più amara invettiva che brucia la coscienza.
