| Description: |
Covering his extraordinary life, his poetry and his neglected philosophical writings, this is a comprehensive biography of the legendary Omar Khayyam. |
| Synopsis: |
The intoxicating message of Khayyam's famous Ruba'iyyat created an image of exotic Orientalism in the West but, as author Mehdi Aminrazavi reveals, Khayyam's achievements went far beyond the intoxicating message within these verses. Philosopher, mathematician, scientist, and mystic - his many different identities are examined here in detail, creating a coherent picture of this complex and often misunderstood figure. |
