Spätestens seit den 1960er Jahren des letzten Jahrhunderts ist Der Prophet ein Kultbuch mit enormen Verkaufszahlen weltweit. Sein Autor wurde 1883 im Libanon geboren und emigrierte 1895 in die USA, wo er sein Hauptwerk nach langjähriger Arbeit 1923 auf Englisch veröffentlichte. Der Prophet Almustafa wartet, nachdem er zwölf Jahre in der Stadt Orphalese auf einer Insel verbracht hat, auf das Schiff, das ihn in seine Heimat zurückbringen soll. Vor der Abreise verkündet er in kurzen, prägnanten und poetischen Sätzen seine Lehren: über die Liebe, die Ehe, über Kinder, Freundschaft, Freiheit und über den Tod. Ungekürzte und unbearbeitete Textausgabe in der Originalsprache, mit Übersetzungen schwieriger Wörter am Fuß jeder Seite, Nachwort und Literaturhinweisen.
