Description
This program pays tribute to the “poet of life”, Aboul-Qasim Chabbi (1909-1934), on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of his death. The poet's portrait is accompanied by a feather and a muse holding a lyre, symbolizing the romantic and revolutionary inspiration of his work. His most famous poem, The Will to Live, the verses of which appear in the Tunisian national anthem, marked the awakening of national consciousness. This stamp celebrates the power of the literary word as an engine of freedom and pillar of modern Tunisian identity.
