About the book

Omar Khayyam's «The Sufistic Quatrains» is a profound exploration of the metaphysical and existential themes that permeate Sufism, distilled into the elegant form of quatrains, or rubaiyat. With their succinct yet evocative language, these poems reflect a confluence of philosophical inquiry and spiritual yearning, showcasing Khayyam's mastery in blending complex ideas with lyrical beauty. The literary context of these quatrains situates them at the intersection of Persian mysticism and medieval philosophical thought, offering insight into the human condition and the pursuit of truth through personal awakening and divine love. Khayyam (1048-1131) was a polymath whose contributions spanned poetry, mathematics, and astronomy. Born in Nishapur, Persia, his exposure to the vibrant intellectual climate of the Islamic Golden Age undoubtedly influenced his poetic voice. His pursuits in science, particularly in astronomy, are mirrored in the rational inquiries present in his poetry, leading to a synthesis of artistic expression and philosophical inquiry that has left an indelible mark on Persian literature. For readers seeking not only literary beauty but also a deeper understanding of Sufi philosophy, «The Sufistic Quatrains of Omar Khayyam» is an essential addition to their collection. It invites contemplation on the relationship between the self and the cosmos, making it a timeless work that resonates with seekers of wisdom across cultures and eras.
