Os rubaiyát’s do poeta persa Omar Khayyam

Os rubaiyát’s do poeta persa Omar Khayyam. Elfi Kürten, Fenske

Abstract

Ghiyath al-Din Abu’l-Fath Umar ibn Ibrahim Al-Nishapuri al-Khayyam, ou simplesmente, Omar Khayyam nasceu e morreu em Nishapur, província de Khorassan, na Pérsia (c.1050-c.1123). Importante astrônomo, matemático e pensador em sua época, chegou a nós como poeta. Escreveu centenas de poemas em forma de quadras, chamados “Rubaiyat”. Exprimiu-se em poesias breves e satíricas. Nada negou nem afirmou, apenas gozou o presente e colheu os frutos da vida ao sabor do vinho e de todas as cores, ou vindo o som do alaúde, sentindo o perfume das rosas e acariciando os seios cor de neve de uma bela mulher… Seu hedonismo, só depois de seis séculos, chegou ao Ocidente, e tornou-se o poeta persa um dos autores mais populares do mundo. Sua poesia, universal, sobreviveu ao passar dos anos e às diversas traduções. Há qualquer coisa intrigante e misteriosa que que os leitores de uma era eletrônica e globalizada se deliciem com esta poesia simples e intemporal.

Khayyam, Omar vi. As mathematician

Khayyam, Omar vi. As mathematician. B. Vahabzadeh.
Encyclopaedia Iranica Online, May 2014.

Three mathematical treatises of Omar Khayyam have come down to us: (1) a commentary on Euclid’s Elements; (2) an essay on the division of the quadrant of a circle; (3) a treatise on algebra; and (4) the treatise on the extraction of the nth root of the numbers, which is not extant.

Edward FitzGerald’s The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam

Edward FitzGerald’s The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. Dick Sullivan.
The Victorian Webb (2014)

We’re lucky to have FitzGerald’s The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam at all. It was by chance that he met Edward Cowell, one of the few Victorians who spoke Persian, and who was friendly enough to help him. (FitzGerald was no linguist.) It was by chance also that Cowell discovered an Omar Khayyam manuscript in the Bodleian (FitzGerald had tried to stop him going to Oxford).

Balkan Rubaiyat. The post-Ottoman polysystem between East and West

Balkan Rubaiyat. The post-Ottoman polysystem between East and West. R. Mueller.
Paper, online available at Academia.edu, June 2014.

In the Balkans, two important national thinkers produced their own Rubaiyat translations. In 1920, Safvet-Beg Bašağić (1870-1934), Oriental scholar and father of Muslim nationalism in Bosnia, published the first translation of the acclaimed Rubaiyat in a South Slavic language. In 1926, Theofan Stylian Noli (1882-1965), ordained Orthodox priest, national intellectual and once-Prime Minister of Albania, published the first Albanian-language version of the Rubaiyat. What are we to make of the temporal and geographical convergence of these individuals and their text, their parallel projects of making a behemoth of modern world literature—itself situated in an unstable place between East and West—available to audiences in a newly post-Ottoman sphere?

Khayyam, Omar vii. Translations into Italian. Casari, Mario.
Encyclopaedia Iranica Online, May 2014.

The reception of Khayyam’s poetic work in Italy, as in the rest of Europe, was the result of the translation and rewriting of the English poet Edward FitzGerald (d. 1883) in the years 1859-79. In Italy the more scholarly approach to Khayyam’s work by a few dedicated Iranists proceeded at a fitful pace over many decades.
