To operationalize this reading, the study employs a literary micro-model: Van der Kolk and Fisleriss Dissociation and the Fragmentary Nature of Traumatic Memories used to map The Madman (1918) as the ruptured phase, where fragmentation, irony, and self-estrangement externalize pain; while Seligmans PERMA model frames The Prophet (1923) as the integrative phase, where meaning, relationships, and transcendence articulate universalist healing. By juxtaposing alienation and flourishing, the analysis highlights Gibrans movement from rebellion to harmony, revealing poetrys potential as a therapeutic medium for personal and collective crises. 2025 National Association for Poetry Therapy.
