CHARLES AL-HAYEK: Lebanon's History, Heritage & Roots | Sarde (after dinner) Podcast #29

We had a Sarde with Charles al-Hayek, historian and researcher, working on bringing Lebanese and Arabic cultural heritage on social media. شارل الحايك، باحث في مجال التاريخ، يعمل على نشر التاريخ والارث الثقافي اللبناني والعربي على وسائل التواصل الاجتماعي.   After our little pit stop in Dubai, we came back to Lebanon and delved deep into our heritage and roots with historian Charles Al Hayek The Lebanese’s relationship to their history is… complicated, and in this sarde Charles broke down for us common myths and legends ranging from the Phoenicians, Fakhreddine, the history of Shias in Lebanon, the origins of hummus and so much more! History is neither boring, sacred or serious... It can be super fun! Ladies and gentlemen, this is going to be a wild one.   ‎‏بعد رحلتنا القصيرة إلى دبي عدنا إلى لبنان وعدنا لنبحث في تاريخ لبنان مع المؤرخ شارل الحايك. ‎‏إن علاقة لبنان بتاريخه هي معقدة جدا ولهذا السبب استضفنا في سردة المؤرخ شارل الذي نفى ووضح لنا العديد من الخرافات والأساطير والاحداث منذ الفينيقيين وصولا الى فخر الدين والمجاعة وقيام لبنان الكبير. تحدثنا عن مواضيع اخرى منها تاريخ الشيعة في جبل عامل وصولًا الى الحمص! ‎سيداتي وسادتي، انها حلقة مثيرة جدا.   Don't forget to like and subscribe to our channel!
