The Prophet

The Prophet pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載2025

Poet, philosopher, and artist, was born in Lebanon, a land that has produced many prophets.

The millions of Arabic-speaking peoples familiar with his writings in that language consider him the genius of his age.

But he was a man whose fame and influence spread far beyond the Near East. His poetry has been translated into more than twenty languages.

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 the United States, which he made his home during the last twenty years of his life, he began to write in English.

The Prophet and his other books of poetry, illustrated with his mystical drawings, are known and loved by innumerable Americans who find in them an expression of the deepest impulses of man's heart and mind.

In a distant, timeless place, a mysterious prophet walks the sands. At the moment of his departure, he wishes to offer the people gifts but possesses nothing. The people gather round, each asks a question of the heart, and the man's wisdom is his gift. It is Gibran's gift to us, as well, for Gibran's prophet is rivaled in his wisdom only by the founders of the world's great religions. On the most basic topics--marriage, children, friendship, work, pleasure--his words have a power and lucidity that in another era would surely have provoked the description "divinely inspired." Free of dogma, free of power structures and metaphysics, consider these poetic, moving aphorisms a 20th-century supplement to all sacred traditions--as millions of other readers already have. --Brian Bruya

讀後感

評分

从来没觉得诗是这样平易近人的东西。 一直以来都不这么觉得,虽然李白的床前明月光也是很通俗易懂。我也看过很多翻译过来的诗,不是意境全在翻译中成了渣滓,就是看不懂其中深邃的含义,只能望诗兴叹,感慨自己水平低得另人发指。 《先知》就这样颠覆了我的习惯。我从书架上...

The Prophet is a book of prose poetry that made its Lebanese-American author famous. Commonly found in gift shops and frequently quoted at weddings or any occasion where uplifting 'spiritual' thoughts are required, the work has never been a favori...

描述纪伯伦的作品是困难的,尤其对于《先知》:分析太僵硬而全无意趣,概括太浅薄而隔靴搔痒,至于印象的鉴赏,更如韦勒克在《文学理论》中所讥讽的——不过是艺术品的拙劣模仿。接下来我说的话,对纪伯伦作品发表的意见,也将不免于以上几种批评。但是,假使话语是真诚的,自...

看到一篇《纽约客》关于纪伯伦的八卦文,作者援引了两部纪伯伦传记来证明:纪伯伦是个彻头彻尾的失败者和伪君子,《先知》也不过是另一部取巧的《心灵鸡汤》。 Joan Acocella——一位职业舞评人——的文字利落,简练,生动,画面感极强,直指痛处,好吧我承认对此我只有羡慕嫉...

我读纪伯伦的作品总是有种似曾相识的感觉,直到最近才发现,纪伯伦的《先知》和老子的《道德经》简直一模一样。 更有了一个猜想,纪伯伦是老子的学生。先不用着急否定,也不用盲目的肯定,让我们来看看纪伯伦的《先知》中流露出来的种种痕迹。 让我们先看看两部作品的内容: 老...

Love possesses not nor would it be possessed, for love is sufficient unto love.

讀的版本是德國人齣的。現在正在對著字典讀第二遍。第一遍讀下來有幾章很不錯,有幾章不理解。尤其像Love那一章,很虐很亞洲的感覺=_,=

由於去瞭趟黎巴嫩 把這書看瞭 還去看瞭紀伯倫的博物館。Sans plus.
