Preview The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam (Bloom's Modern Critical Interpretations)

Description:
Penned by Omar Khayy?m circa 1120, these quatrains of Arabic verse were introduced to England in 1859 by scholar poet Edward FitzGerald. The overwhelming popularity of FitzGerald's lyrical translation owes as much to the translator as the writer. The title, Edward FitzGerald’s The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, part of Chelsea House Publishers’ Modern Critical Interpretations series, presents the most important 20th-century criticism on Edward FitzGerald’s The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam through extracts of critical essays by well-known literary critics. This collection of criticism also features a short biography on Edward FitzGerald, a chronology of the author’s life, and an introductory essay written by Harold Bloom, Sterling Professor of the Humanities, Yale University.
