OMAR KHAYYAM: RUBAIYATTranslation & Introduction Paul SmithReprint of 1909 Introduction by R.A. NicholsonOmar Khayyam (died 1132) was one of the early masters of the Persian poetic form of the rubai so much so that many in collections of these profound, philosophic, mystical, sometimes controversial poems were often attributed to him, although many were by other great Persian poets such as Attar, Sadi, Rumi and Hafiz. More famous in Iran as an astronomer and mathematician the sometimes nihilistic and hedonistic and occasionally Sufi philosophy in his rubais meant that his poems were never really popular in his homeland, but after the interpretations of Edward FitzGerald the west fell in love with him. Introduction: The Life and Times of Omar Khayyam and his work as a Scientist & Philosopher and a history of the rubai and examples by its greatest exponents and a chapter on the various translations into English and other languages. Selected bibliography. The correct rhyme-structure is here, the beauty and meaning of these fatalistic, intoxicated, loving, sometimes mystical and often satirical 186 four-line poems. Large format 7 x 10 280 pages. COMMENTS ON PAUL SMITHS TRANSLATION OF HAFIZS DIVAN.It is not a joke... the English version of ALL the ghazals of Hafiz is a great feat and of paramount importance.
