THE SKETCHES OF GIBRAN KHALI GIBRAN ARE THE FIRST SECRET



The Sketches that come with the first edition of the son of man are Jibran secret to his creativity:

The true meaning is this:

I will copy from the great masters and i will leave something that others will have to continue or reshape

In his sketches this is obvious:
he copied the style of michel angelo where he never continued the works

And in the writing he never terminated a true story in one paragraph, also a paragraph is in fact one complete story


The reason for this is a philosophical way of thinking;
Gibran Khalil Gibran made a philosophical question mark:

He was in fact more a philosopher than a writer.

Discussing to this subject is like his work:
widely open to discussion


(Idon't review what i write)

GIBRAN KAHLIL GIBRAN - THE SECRETS OF CREATION

THE 30 SECRETS OF CREATION

Talking about the man from Lebanon


Camille Allam

When I first read the Prophet or Jesus son of men, I realised how good a writer must be to copy a story or text that is known to every human being on this planet and then to twist it in a way that magically it will become your's.

In actual state of things this is a new Linux distro!

In general therm this is remixing!

In another french way to say it this a :Prodie

In art concept this would be phrased like this:

The true artist is the one that creates while copying!

In what ever contry or way of thinking
this could only be interpretation.

In critics way of saying this is a personal way to write something that has been aleady writen

In the philosophical thinking writing or rewriting or reinterpreting or remixing or resaying something that has already been said is simply the true state of mind of a philosopher:

It is remodeling and reshaping the original text in a way that will permit to any new philosopher or writer to add or rewrite it again.

In a way it is a kind of demistifying the text ,creating a new question over it's contenue
and leaving the door wide open for future interpretations!

In fact this is what gibran made from the first time he wrote a text:
he wrote like a philosopher and not like a writer;
His language is new: This due to the fact that the english language was new to him. and he only new it from the bible

But the most caracterestic thing that can attract the reader it's the cutting of the books into small paragraphs and one could say pieces:

This is the true integration of gibran to the period where he was writing: the periods in art and english litterature where cutting and collage begun to spread around:

So he had two or three styles combined together:

collage
renaissance:his drawings
litterature story telling: english style

english language of the bible,or the medieval way

an anachrisme of the subject at first look:
but in fact it was the mode at this time to talk and live like yogies or like buddhists

But the thing that strikes the most is the relation between his work and the work of the symbolic movement ,that he as a eastern man ,elevated to the rank of God worship and Jesus revival instead of leaving it at the stade of atheisme

exuse my writing i never review my texts.
