Kahlil Gibran was an influential author from the early twentieth century. After studying in Arabic in Beirut and in art in Paris, Gibran devoted his life to writing literary essays and short stories, in both Arabic and English, and painting. His often-romantic works were themed around love, death, and nature, with inspirations from Friedrich Nietzsche, William Blake and the Bible. Some of his (English) works include The Madman (1918), The Forerunner (1920), and The Prophet (1923).
