Omar Khayym (10481122) Was A Persian Mathematician, Astronomer, And A Philosopher Who Was Not Known As A Poet In His Lifetime. Later, A Body Of Quatrains Became Attached To His Name, Although Not All Were His Works. These Verses Lay In Obscurity Until 1859, When Edward Fitzgerald (18091883), An English Country Gentleman, Published A Free Adaptation Of This Persian Poetry. After Its Discovery By D. G. Rossetti And Others, The Verse Became Extremely Popular. Essentially A Hedonist And A Skeptic, Omar Khayym, Through Fitzgerald, Spoke With Both An Earthy And Spiritual Freedom That Stirred A Universal Response. As A Result, The Rubiyt Became One Of The Bestknown And Most Often Quoted English Classics. The Fifth Edition, Published Posthumously In 1889, Was Based On Fitzgerald'S Handwritten Changes In A Copy Of The Fourth Edition, And Is Traditionally Printed With The First Edition.
