()〕 He is considered to be the leader of the Phoenicianism movement in Lebanon which ignited a surge of nationalism that led to Lebanon's independence.〔Kaufman, Asher. 2004. ''(Reviving Phoenicia: The Search for Identity in Lebanon )''. London: I.B. Tauris.〕〔http://books.google.com/books?isbn=0520256689 Samir Kassir, Beirut〕〔http://www.academia.edu/5561748/Pheonicianism_the_Formation_of_an_Identity_in_Lebanon_of_1920 The Formation Of An Identity In Lebanon〕 In a country torn by sectarian conflicts, Corm's intention was to find a common root shared by all Lebanese beyond their religious beliefs (the Phoenicians were pagans). Over the course of his life, Corm received more than 100 international literary and non literary awards, including the Edgar Allan Poe International Poetry Prize 1934, Citizen of Honor of New York City (USA),〔( They Went To The Fair ), ''Saudi Aramco World'' July/August 1973〕〔(Lebanon Participation - Charles Corm (Commissioner General) speaking ), New York Public Library Digital Collection〕 Grand Officer of the National Order of the Cedar (Lebanon), Officer of the French Poets' Society (France), Medal of Honor of the Académie Française in 1950 (France),〔http://www.academie-francaise.fr/charles-corm Académie Française〕 Grand Officer of the Order of Human Merit (Switzerland), Cross of Academic Honor of the American International Academy (USA) and Grand Officer of the Academic Order (Italy). ==Writer== Although most Lebanese authors at the time wrote in Arabic, Corm mostly wrote in French.
