Rubiyt of Omar Khayym Book Second Edition by Edward Fitzgerald, substantially expanded and revised from the first of 1859. This book has 21 pages in the PDF version, and was originally published in the 1850's. The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám was written by the eccentric English scholar Edward FitzGerald, drawing on his loose translation of quatrains by the 12th-century poet and mathematician Omar Khayyám. Others have seen signs of mysticism, even atheism, or conversely devout and orthodox Islam. Some took the view that Khayyam himself clearly was a Sufi. The fact that the rubaiyat is a collection of quatrains – and may be selected and rearranged subjectively to support one interpretation or another – has led to widely differing versions. The nature of a translation very much depends on what interpretation one places on Khayyam's philosophy. The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám is the title that Edward Fitzgerald gave to his translation of a selection of poems, originally written in Persian and numbering about a thousand, attributed to Omar Khayyám. The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam Edward FitzgeraldĪvailable to download for free in PDF, epub, and Kindle ebook formats. ![]()
