Assim Falou o Profeta
Assim falou o Profeta é uma nova edição do texto clássico de Kahlil Gibran acompanhado de mais de 150 poemas, aforismos e epigramas, totalmente inéditos. Originalmente publicado em 1923, O Profeta, é uma fábula didática que tem sido acarinhada por milhões ao longo destes mais de 100 anos. É um livro de sabedoria que oferece aos seus leitores ensinamentos sobre como levar uma vida imbuída com significado e propósito. Gibran explora todos os grandes temas das nossas vidas, incluindo o amor, o casamento, a condição humana, a amizade, a oração, a beleza, a morte e muito mais. O que torna esta edição especialmente empolgante é a inclusão de textos inéditos escritos por Gibran. Em 2017, Dalton Hilu Einhorn teve acesso aos arquivos Gibran/Haskell na Universidade da Carlina do Norte. Escondidos entre estes tesouros em papel, encontrou alguns escritos muito pouco conhecidos de Gibran, publicados agora pela primeira vez. Neste livro encontra toda a inspiração clássica de Gibran e a inspiração que leva os leitores a contemplar amor, beleza, mortalidade e significado.

About the author
Kahlil Gibran
1,381 books15.2k followersKahlil Gibran (Arabic:
جبران خليل جبران
) was a Lebanese-American artist, poet, and writer.
Born in the town of Bsharri in modern-day Lebanon (then part of Ottoman Mount Lebanon), as a young man he emigrated with his family to the United States where he studied art and began his literary career. 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 Lebanon, he is still celebrated as a literary hero.
He is chiefly known in the English-speaking world for his 1923 book The Prophet, an early example of inspirational fiction including a series of philosophical essays written in poetic English prose. The book sold well despite a cool critical reception, gaining popularity in the 1930s and again, especially in the 1960s counterculture.
Gibran is the third best-selling poet of all time, behind Shakespeare and Lao-Tzu.
