About the Author Persian poet, philosopher, mathematician, and astronomer. In his own country, Omar Khayyam was renowned for his scientific achievements, but not as a poet. His rhymes were rediscovered by the English scholar and poet Edward Fitzgerald (1809-83) in the mid-nineteenth century. A Book of Verses underneath the Bough, A Jug of Wine, a Loaf of Bread - and Thou Beside me singing in the Wilderness - O, Wilderness were Paradise enow! (trans. by Edward Fitzgerald) Omar Kayyam was born Ghiyath al-Din Abul Fateh Omar Ibn Ibrahim al-Khayyam in Nishapur, the capital of Khurasan. The commercially rich province was at that time under Seljuq rule. Little is known of Omar's early life. The epithet Khayyam signifies "tent-maker" - it is possible that Omar or his father, Ibrahim the Tentmaker, one time exercised that trade. Omar was educated at his native town, where he studied under the celebrated teacher, the Iman Mowaffak. In Samara he completed his treatise on algebra. When the Seljuq Sultan Malik Shah offered him preferment at court, Omar made a request: "The greatest boon you can confer on me," he said, "is to let me live in a corner under the shadow of your fortune, to spread wide the advantages of Science, and pray for your long life and prosperity."

Omar Khayyam Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam Introduction "Ah, make the most of what we yet may spend, Before we too into the Dust descend; Dust into Dust, and under Dust, to lie, Sans Wine, sans Song, sans Singer, and- sans End!" ( The Rubaiyat , XXIII) Omar Khayyam was born in Nishapur, Persia (now Iran) on 18 May 1040 although this is only a purported date and some claim that it was 1023. He studied geometry and astronomy and in Samarkand worked for the chief magistrate and the ruler of Bokhara, Shamsolmolk Nasr. He went on to enter the service of Saljuq Sultan Malekshah (who ruled between 1072 and 1092). He also traveled to Mecca and Baghdad before returning to Nishapur. With his great expertise in the study of the stars he helped to construct an observatory and compile a set of astronomical tables upon which was based a new calendar era. As such Khayyam’s contemporary reputation was as a scientist. Of the scientific works he produced some still survive. He died in December 1131, but again some historians have given a different date: 1123. Khayyam’s times were hazardous ones due to the Saljuq Turks who were finishing off their infiltration of Iran, Mesopotamia and Asia Minor when he was young and by the time he died they were completing their empire stretching from the River Oxus to Syria. In these turbulent times Khayyam’s verse gives the reader a sense of logic and clarity. The poems of

ALPHABETICAL SEARCH Any of the words All of the words Exact phrase Boolean Case sensitive CONTENT INDEX ATLAS Omar Khayyam (Nishapur c. 1050- Nishapur 1122) Persian mathematician and poet. Omar Khayyam ('Omar the tentmaker') was educated as a mathematician and astronomer, and worked at the royal court as astronomer. His works on algebra and geometry gave him an elevated position in his own time. In 1077 he issued an important work that solved problems with the mathematics of Euclid, problems mathematicians in Europe managed to solve only 5-600 years later. From 1074 to 1079 Khayyam worked on a reform of the calendar system. The new system was used until 1925 in Persia (now Iran It is for his poetry that he now is best remembered, collected in Rabayat , even if it now is believed that a large part of the 1,000 four-line stanzas cannot be attributed to him. Omar Khayyam's fame in the West came with the paraphrase by the British Edward Fitzgerald in 1859.

Culture - Poetry Persian Poetry OMAR KHAYAM Khayam Poetry Khayam Old Manuscript Khayam Tomb Khayam books ... Khayam CDs Omar Khayam was born in Nishapur in province of Khorasan in Iran in the latter part of 11th century. He was considered "The King of Wisdom"; he died in 1123 AD. He is one of the most well known poets in the west and his poems are translated into many languages. It is common for Iranian poets to take their name from their occupation. For example, Attar, "the druggist," Assar, "the oil presser," and Khayam means "tent maker". He was Omar the son of Abraham the tent maker. He worked in that trade at one time but he was favored by the king (Sultan), Malik Shah. Omar Khayam rejected the court life in favor of scientific studies and literary pursuits. Khayam was famous for his rubai (quatrain) poems, also known as a mathematician, historian, and astronomer. He was an astroronomer royal who was appointed by Malik Shah to reform the muslim calendar which is compared to Pope Gregory XII's revision of Julian Calendar. Although there are debates about the life and poems of Omar Khayam, it is certain that he was a great mystic and was considered a sage in his time. The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayam was translated by Edward FitzGerald, an English poet and translator who lived 1809-1883. Although The Robaiyat of Omar Khayam gained popularity slowly in the west, it became the most loved poems in English language.

18. Central Asian And Iran Ghiyas alDin Abul Fath Umar ibn Ibrahim Khayyam Nishapuri. Written by. Iraj Bashiri .. Selections from the Quatrains of omar khayyam http://www.angelfire.com/rnb/bashiri/Poets/Khayyam.html

Ghiyas al-Din Abul Fath Umar ibn Ibrahim Khayyam Nishapuri Written by Iraj Bashiri Khayyam's dates of birth and death are reported differently by various authorities. The dates for his birth range from 1021 to 1048 and for his death from 1122 to 1131. Son of a tent maker, Khayyam was a mathematician, astronomer, philosopher, and poet. He was also skilled in medicine and music. His corpus of works, consisting of two works in physics, four in mathematics, five in philosophy, and one each in geography, astronomy, history, and music reflects his wide range of interest in the sciences and the arts. He knew Arabic and Persian. Of the works mentioned above eight are in Arabic and two in Perso-Tajik. Khayyam completed his elementary education in Balkh under Muhammad Mansur. By the age of seventeen he was well-versed in the sciences of his time. He spent the next nine years in Samarqand and Bukhara becoming acquainted with the philosophy of the masha'is, especially with the works of Ibn-i Sina. Two of his early works on mathematics"Mushkilat al-Hisab," dealing with the general rules governing the positive roots of numbers and "Sharh-i Mushkil min Kitab al-Musiqi," dealing with music from a mathematical standpointare mentioned in his later work "Risala fi al-Barahin ala Masa'il al-Jabr wa al-Muqabila." This work, which was written in the 1070's at the court of the Qara Khanid king Shams al-Muluk (1068-1079), established Khayyam's fame outside of Bukhara and Khurasan. In fact, it brought him in the purview of the Saljuq court of Isfahan.
