Reacting against the Ottoman dominance in Syria and Lebanon, Chekri Ganem (1869-1921) enabled a « national » Lebanese poetry to take root which was both « Arabic » in inspiration and « French » in language. In exile in Paris – where he published his poetry collections and staged his play Antar – Chekri Ganem was a « fire-bearer » who assumed the role of « smuggler » between East and West.
