Author: Omar Khayyam
Title: The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyam
Description: Wordsworth Editions 1997 Paperback, 96pp. Omar Khayyam (1048-1122) was a Persian mathematician, astronomer, and philosopher who was not known as a poet in his lifetime. These verses lay in obscurity until 1859, when FitzGerald published a free adapation of this Persian poetry. As a result, The Rubaiyat became one of the best-known and most often quoted English classics. (ISBN: 9781853261879). Mint.
