text:
Edward al-Dahdah (1898-1945) was a Lebanese journalist, essayist and playwright. The scion of a noble Maronite family, the House of al-Dahdah, he was one of the main figures of modern Lebanese theater during the French Mandate era. He was an ardent proponent of the pan-Syrian and pan-Arab causes. He advocated for the adoption of a simplified form of classical Arabic as a mother tongue for the nascent Lebanese nation, as a compromise between classical Arabic and the Lebanese colloquial dialect.
