Lebanese protests prompt émigré writer definition revisions
A report highlighting the success of the Lebanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs in correcting the text of the memorial dedicated to emigre writers in New York, where there were errors concerning their national affiliation. The old plaque, which described them as "Syrian writers," has been replaced with a new inscription clarifying their Lebanese identity, emphasizing prominent figures such as Mikhail Naimy, Khalil Gibran, Amine Rihani, and Elia Abu Madi, who contributed to the Lebanese and Arab literary renaissance since 1920. This step comes as part of efforts to correct cultural history and strengthen the Lebanese identity of these writers, who carried Lebanon’s name to the world through their creative works.
