Poet, philosopher, and artist, Kahlil Gibran (1883 - 1931) was born in Lebanon.The millions of Arabic-speaking peoples familiar with his writings in that language consider him the genius of his age and he was a man whose fame and influence spread far beyond the country of his birth. His poetry has been translated into more than twenty languages and his drawings and paintings have been exhibited in the great capitals of the world and compared by Auguste Rodin to the work of William Blake.In this, his only play, he turns his wit, humanity and compassion to bear on the Biblical story of Jesus' raising Lazarus from the dead and by concentrating on Lazarus's domextic life. As in all his works, Gibran finds profound insight and poetic wisdom in the most ordinary and extraordinary of situations. No library descriptions found. |
