商品簡介
Omar Khayyam was a Persian astronomer and part-time poet whose career spanned the tenth and eleventh centuries. His poetic output of 280 quatrains went essentially unknown to western readers until a copy happened to, according to the most popular legend, the hands of British poets Dante Gabriel Rossetti and Algernon Swinburne. From them, Khayaam's rubaiyat of 280 unrelated mediations on a variety of topics ranging from the mystically cosmological to the romantically melancholic eventually made its way to Edward FitzGerald, a writer notable primarily for highly regarded translations of ancient Greek drama into English. FitzGerald set himself to the task of translation Khayyam's verse but in the process created something that stands midway between translation and entirely original work. FitzGerald's The Rubaiyat of Omar Khaayam was published anonymously in 1859 and proceeded to do absolutely nothing to extend the knowledge of the Persian poet beyond his own time and place. At one point, the publisher was offering the pamphlets for sale at a penny each. Over the next decade, FitzGerald and Khayyam staked out a claim together as the creative minds behind the very first cult hit. By 1869, FitzGerald's quite liberal translation has managed to become a literary sensation substantial enough to mandate an expanded second edition. By the end of the 19th century, The Rubaiyat had become one of the best-selling volumes of Victorian poetry ever.
