Languages : fr
Pages : 79
Book Description
Préférant les jouissances de l'éphémère aux vérités érigées en dogmes, Omar Khayyam était un homme qui regardait le ciel en face. Au lieu de gémir sur le sort de l'humanité, il ne voulut lui souhaiter que l'ivresse et l'amour. Haïssant l'esclavage de la pensée, ce poète, vivant il y a plus de mille ans en Perse, nous a légué ces Quatrains qui, aujourd'hui encore, résonnent comme un chant magnifique qui s'élève contre l'imposture religieuse et politique.

Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
Author: Omar Khayyam

ISBN: 9781514143322

Languages : en
Pages : 50
Book Description
Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam - By Omar Khayyam - The Rubaiyát 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 (1048-1131), a Persian poet, mathematician and astronomer. A ruba'i is a two-line stanza with two parts (or hemistichs) per line, hence the word rubáiyát (derived from the Arabic language root for "four"), meaning "quatrains".The nature of a translation very much depends on what interpretation one places on Khayyam's philosophy. 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. Nicolas took the view that Khayyam himself clearly was a Sufi. Others have seen signs of mysticism, even atheism, or conversely devout and orthodox Islam. FitzGerald gave the Rubaiyat a distinct fatalistic spin, although it has been claimed that he softened the impact of Khayyam's nihilism and his preoccupation with the mortality and transience of all things. Even such a question as to whether Khayyam was pro- or anti-alcohol gives rise to more discussion than might at first glance have seemed plausible.
