Description
A rare and authentic piece of Lebanese history from the French Mandate era — this collection showcases the legal, intellectual, and cultural legacy of Segean Bey Areege Saadeh, one of the early jurists and writers from Jezzine.
The set includes original handwritten Arabic manuscripts, legal case files, and annotated articles from “Sada Loubnan” (a legal-cultural journal of the time), all written in elegant classical Arabic. Among them is a 1934 Certificate of Knowledge and Letters issued by La Réunion Libanaise – Beyrouth, a mark of academic and social prestige during that period.
These documents reflect the refined world of early Lebanese law, education, and intellectual thought in the 1930s–1940s — when legal minds and national thinkers were shaping modern Lebanon.
