63. Iran, The Cradle Of Sience Bu Nasr Iraqi, Abu Reyhan Birooni (10th and 11th century AD.), the greatIranian poet Hakim Omar Khayyam Neishaburi, Qatan Marvzi, Massoudi Ghaznavi http://www.cais-soas.com/CAIS/Science/iran_sience.htm

The Circle of Ancient Iranian Studies Home About CAIS Articles News Update ... Glossary Guestbook View Guestbook Links If you require any further information please contact: Shapour Suren-Pahlav IRAN THE CRADLE OF SCIENCE There is not much information about the evolution of science in Iran in ancient times. It is however, established that science and knowledge was a progress during the Sassanid period (226-652 AD.) when great attention was given to mathematics and astronomy. The existence of astronomical tables such as the Shahryar Tables and the observatories which were later imitated by the astrologers and astronomers of the Islamic period prove the importance of astronomy in Iran during the Sassanid dynasty. Sa'ad Andolsosi in his book "Classes of People" highly praised the knowledge of Iranians of that period in mathematics and astronomy. In some books wrote in the Pahlavi languages one encounter many references to scientific subjects such as the divinity, natural science, mathematics and other relevant subjects. The medical and veterinary essays, prescriptions and expressions mentioned in "Dinkart" (from the Sassanid period) are very interesting. Some medical books later narrated in Arabic were initially compiled in the Syrian or Pahlavi languages by Iranian scholars. Among such books are books on veterinary, agriculture, diseases and treatment of gab-birds, training and education of children, tactics of warfare, etc.

66. A Criticism Of The Fitzgerald Translation Edward Fitzgerald s translation of The Rubaiyyat of Omar Khayyam is the most widely for turning this classic by the 11thcentury Persian mathematician, http://www.geocities.com/sitabhra/khayyam/fitz_crit.html

The Gazette (Montreal), June 12, 1993, Saturday, Pg. L2 Translator made Khayyam sensualist he never was Anand If all translators are traitors, as goes the Italian saying ("traduttori traditori"), then what fate should we reserve for the individual who does a interpretive translation? And what if the translator is accused of interpolation? Edward Fitzgerald's translation of The Rubaiyyat of Omar Khayyam is the most widely read - and quoted - work of poetry from the Orient. There have been numerous editions since its first publication in 1858, many with illustrations that may be blamed for turning this classic by the 11th-century Persian mathematician, physicist and astronomer into a kind of erotica. The Rubaiyyat, for its length of 75 four-line "rubai" or stanzas, is perhaps the most frequent source of modern entries in English dictionaries of familiar quotations (35 citations in The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations, 33 in Bartlett's). The most famous,`` Thou beside me singing in the wilderness'' has been the subject of countless illustrations; and ``thou'' has always been depicted as a handsome young houri (maiden). The admirers of Khayyam may be loath to know that ``thou'' does not sing and is not a houri in the original, but merely his Sufi fellow-initiate with whom he meditates over a book of poems. In Fitzgerald's Rubaiyyat, a garden is the setting for the musings and the yearnings of the persona and an expression of his moods; in the original there is no garden at all and each ``rubai'' is an individual short poem, a kind of epigram.

'The Rider Named Death' theaters, showtimes An ode to the oral tradition of the Middle East, "The Keeper: The Legend of Omar Khayyam" is efficiently told by first-time writer-director Kayvan Mashayekh and melds the contemporary world with the historic. The family-friendly epic weaves the touching story of a young boy living with his Iranian immigrant family in Houston and the tale of the 11th century mathematician, astronomer and poet, Omar Khayyam. The boy, Kamran (Adam Echahly), sits patiently by the bedside of his dying older brother Nader (Puya Behinaein) who carefully relates the adventures of Khayyam as their grandfather and his ancestors had done before him. Omar (Bruno Lastra) is a brilliant young man involved in a "Jules and Jim"-like triangle with the beautiful slave girl Darya (Marie Espinosa) and the fiercely devout Hassan Sabbeh (Christopher Simpson), who goes on to create the sect of the Assassins. Called to work in the court of the Sultan Malikshah (Moritz Bliebtreu), Omar becomes one of the great minds of his age as he struggles to remain above the political and religious upheaval. Inspired by the tale, Kamran is propelled on a quest to discover more about the author of the Rubiayat.

The gardens around the teahouse Home A teahouse for Boulder By George Peknik The Choihona's gardens were the result of extraordinary efforts of the Boulder Garden Club and the Boulder County Rose Society, whose members donated much time and expertise, in addition to some of the plantings and bedding materials, in early 1998 before the Teahouse opened its doors in May of that year. "Images of Paradise in Islamic Art," p.15. Mikl Brawner and Eve Reshetnik of Harlequin's Nursery in North Boulder and current co-presidents of the Boulder County Rose Society, carefully chose the roses according to four criteria. The first was cold-heartiness; the second, fragrance; third, disease resistance; and fourth, how likely it is that they grow in Tajikistan. They worked closely with then-Rose Society President Dawn Penland. Mikl said that it although it was difficult to determine what species are actually found in Central Asia, his research leads him to believe that among the varieties represented at the teahouse the following have family members in or around Dushanbe: Persian Yellow, the orange-yellow shrub Austrian Copper, the light pink small shrub rosa haemisphaerica, and deep magenta-colored Rose de Rescht, which is an Old Garden Rose known for its especially sweet fragrance. It is believed that the world's first planned gardens were in Iran as early as the sixth Century B.C. A garden surrounded the tomb of Cyrus the Great at Pasargadae in what is now southern Iran. Throughout the centuries gardens, roses and other flowers have been praised by poets of the The Middle East and Central Asia. In the Koran, paradise is a garden.

Revised editions followed in 1868, 1872, and 1879. FitzGerald's Rubaiyat has long been one of the most popular English poems. Although actually a paraphrase rather than a translation of a poem by the 11th-century Persian poet Omar Khayyam , it retains the spirit of the original in its poignant expression of a philosophy counseling man to live life to the fullest while he can. Among FitzGerald's other works are Euphranor (1851), a Platonic dialogue, and Polonius (1852), a collection of aphorisms. See his letters (ed. by A. M. and A. B. Terhune, 4 vol., 1980); biographies by A. M. Terhune (1947) and T. Wright (2 vol., 1904; repr. 1971).

Calinger (ed.), MAA, Washington, 1996, pp. 257260] Our upper-level university honors course, entitled Great Theorems: The Art of Mathematics To achieve our aims we have selected mathematical masterpieces meeting the following criteria. First, sources must be original in the sense that new mathematics is captured in the words and notation of the inventor. Thus we assemble original works or English translations. When English translations are not available, we and our students read certain works in their original French, German, or Latin. In the case of ancient sources, we must often depend upon restored originals and probe the process of restoration. Texts selected also encompass a breadth of mathematical subjects from antiquity to the twentieth century, and include the work of men and women and of Western and non-Western mathematicians. Finally, our selection provides a broad view of mathematics building upon our students' background, and aims, in some cases, to reveal the development over time of strands of mathematical thought. At present the masterpieces are selected from the following.

A beautiful illustration of this method is Archimedes's determination of the area inside a spiral. [

email us Literature Write for The Iranian Great Omar Khayyam's debt to Edward Fitzgerald By Cyrus Kadivar January 14, 2000 The Iranian Several years ago whilst strolling on Charlotte Street in London I came across a house with a blue circle which read: Edward Fitzgerald Lived Here. For me, an Iranian living away from my beloved roses and nightingales, this was a rather special discovery. Few people know that Fitzgerald's "translation" into English of Omar Khayyam's Rubaiyat is probably the best-selling book in the entire history of English poetry. It exists in many editions probably more than two hundred, according to one collector. Enjoying massive popularity throughout the 20th century, many people have carried it around, taken it to war, kept it in the car, ordered it for reading on a putative desert island. The memorable quatrains appeal to all classes and conditions of men and women; they are still treasured by millions. It is perhaps true to say that with no Fitzgerald there would have been no Omar. Recovering from the end of an unhappy marriage, this middle-aged Victorian gentleman set himself to the task of translating into English a hundred or so lyric stanzas (rubais) written by an 11th century Persian astronomer. Fitzgerald found great consolation in Khayyam's skeptical, sensuous poems, which extol the virtues of living deeply in the present moment. Preserving the Persian poet's graceful four-line verse form, Fitzgerald edited, embellished, and arranged the quatrains in dramatic sequence, making his contribution far more than that of mere translator. In 1859 when he published the Rubaiyat anonymously it was an immediate success.
