I enjoyed this web site and I think you have done a good job to make the Lebanese literature available to everyone.

Good job and keep up the good work.

Je voulais juste, par curiositι, laisser un mot sur cette magnifique Home Page.......
Yalla Bye...........

Hi...
Just wanted to congratulate you! It's a really cool page!! I love Ameen Rihani's work!!

Are you gonna post some of his essays in English or Arabic? Do you know any other sites that posted his writings? Keep it up!!

Warm welcome to Alnemat Arabic Christian Internet Magazine - We love you!

Very nice work! Good luck and keep going.

I have always heared of Mr. Rihani but never knew of his intensive work. We actually linked to this site through Gibran Khalil's web page. We are very proud of our cousin from Lebanon. Keep up the good work. This is a great site!

I enjoyed the picture of Ameen Rihani.

I enjoyed signing your guestbook.

Excellent site! I was wondering, was Ameen a Muslim or Christian? Can anyone help me out on this?

I think this is the best way for people to meet who the real Ameen Rihani was and always will be.

Cool!

Hi! This is the first time I have heard about Ameen but I think his work seems very intersting, so I will continue to read his work and learn more about him. Keep up the good work. This page is very nice...

I would like to congratulate you on a great educational site about Ameen Rihani. I have learned a great deal from this site. MABROUK!!

Good homepage! It just needs some more pictures.

It's a good recognition to have this home page about the great Arabic writer Ameen Al-Rihani, who saved in his works alot of Arab histories and remarkable analysis of Arab leaders.

This is a message to Amine Rihani Organization, and the Family of Mr. Amine A. Rihani. Chrisitiane, the kids and I spent a memorable evening tonight visitng your Web Site with great interest. Samira and Amine, we hope you receive this message. Please stay in touch, we are eager to hear/communicate with you. Our e-mail address is: cnakad@aol.com

This is a very fine page. Americans are ignorant of the great Lebanese & Arabian literature. This page offers an insight into the true genius of a great and ancient people. We would all do well to learn from them & their culture. It is sad that we are taught that their only contribution to the world is OIL!

I would like to know if "Muluk" has any meaning? Our orients are from south of Turkey, very close to the Syrian border.

I am also very interested in "Muluk-ul Arab".

Thanks for understanding.

Great site!

I hope this page will be an example to similar cultural sites about our part of the world. We have great people, a great history, and for once let us concentrate on our positives.

Ameen Rihani, like many great Lebanese men, has marked the Arabic heritage with his everlasting works.

Ameen el-Rihani, one of the great Lebanese intellectuals, our great land of Lebanon has begotten. We congratulate you a lot on this amazing website, hoping that we'll always have Lebanese men like Ameen el-Rihani.

LONG LIVE LEBANON.

We have founded a group called the "Arab Theatrical Arts Guild" (ATAG). This is a non-profit performing arts organization which will provide productions in both Arabic and English with a focus on Arab/American issues and content.

As our group matures, we will be interested in reviewing some of Ameen's plays for possible future production. I am the president of A.T.A.G., and we can be reached at:
ATAG (313) 563-4126

U.S.A.

Gre at Web site (ATAG could use one of these!) - for a great man.

I have not known about Ameen Rihani's life and work until now. I thought we, in Lebanon, only have one giant, Gibran. With this short biography and reading the webpage on Rihani, I just have to say that we have two giants in Lebanon. I will look for Rihani's books and I will share them with other Lebanese in the Dominican Republic as well as other Dominican citizens.

This website was one of only two to turn up in my search for information on the Lebanese poet Khalil Hawi (1925 - 1982). The English translation of his poem "Lazarus 1962" has deeply influenced my life and thoughts. I have read one interpretive essay on this poem by Mssrs. Adnan Haydar and Michael Beard, and my hope is to find essays/critiques representing other viewpoints. The poet and the power of his work deserve greater recognition in the Western world. Assistance from anyone, anywhere will be appreciated immensely.

This web page is very interesting and I hope a lot of people stumble upon it the same way I luckily did.

An amazing web page! It would be more complete if there was an arabic version.

Wonderful site... God Bless.

The Rihani Saga is one of a kind. It is somewhat unique. Ameen F. Rihani left an appreciable amount of his works unpublished, unclassified, unheard of, mostly handwritten. It took a vigorously enterprising brother, Albert F. Rihani and after him his children Ameen, May, Ramzi and Sarmad, to undertake the gigantic task of researching, classifying, analyzing, putting together the unpublished part of Ameen Rihani's works. They have all participated, each in his or her own way, in enhancing the legacy of Ameen Rihani. This effort is still faithfully and persistently continuing. The Ameen Rihani Home Page on the Internet, is the addition of another jewel to the crown. An illustration of the ongoing effort is the recent redesign of the site.

Well done my dear ones!
Keep up the good work.
God bless you all.

This homepage is a masterpiece which Rihani admirers will admire, and from which non-admirers will learn to admire Ameen Rihani. It is an achievement which deserves a standing ovation from the admirers of the Rihanis who created it. Well done Uncle Albert! This site is certainly built on your foundations. To the Rihanis with admiration.

Through my uncles and aunt, Ramzi, Ameen, Sarmad and May, I got to know and admire one of my relatives, who has visited my grandparents here in Merida, Mexico, in 1914. I read some of his work and I think it is great.

I am glad to find that this great, but mostly unknown (in the West) writer has such a beautiful site. One of my favorites. Thanks.

It is a great webpage.......well done!

It's great that the world now has a chance to discover this great author. Keep up the good work!

Excellent site! We need to know more about the contributions, past and present, of those of Arab Descent.

Very intresting site. I am looking for his works in the library.

I was greatly privileged during my early years in Beirut to be a neighbor and a close friend of Ameen Rihani's nephews & neice: Amin, Ramzi, Sarmad and May. During this period, I have frequently visited their beautiful village home and their Uncle's lovely museum in Freike, overlooking the spectacular mountains of Lebanon. In those years I have learned a lot about this giant writer & poet, firstly from my own father, and later during my school years at I.C. in Beirut. The works of Ameen Rihani have contributed a wealth of priceless volumes to many generations of Arabs, a source of pride to all of us. This web site reflects the work of a great man whose writings have added richness to Arabic literature through the magic of his pen. God bless his soul.

Great page!... Rihani and Gibran show the strength of Eastern philosophy as opposed to simplistic Western thought.

I am very happy finding this home page because I am working on a research about Mahjar literature. This is really useful. But it would be better if there would be other home pages for other Mahjar poets, especially Mikhail Naimy, whom I am working on.
Thank you.

When you read more, you learn more about people, life, education and religion.

I actually found this page thru CyberSurfari 97.

I found it to be very interesting. I did not know of this writer's existence until just now. I will be sure to look up and read some of his works.

Thank you.

I learned many interesting things from this homepage.

My schoolfriend is named Khalid and I want to tell him about Mr. Rihani. I also have a friend named Bassem from Lebanon who must know about this work.

We are playing CyberSurfari and we are supposed to get a password or something. Just thought we'd let you know our trials and tribulations!!!

Good page!

Enjoyed your site.

Very interesting!
