Readers who enjoy short poems to read aloud, and the gardens and taverns of old Persia, will love this collection, as will anyone drawn to a witty voice that greets life and death with a raised cup.
本の内容
What do you do when you cannot answer the biggest questions? Omar Khayyam, an eleventh century Persian astronomer, mathematician and poet, answers with a cup of wine, a book of verses and a quiet spot in the grass. Four short lines at a time, he asks where we come from, where we go and who is in charge.
This book gathers his rubaiyat, a Persian word for quatrains, in the English verse of Edward FitzGerald. FitzGerald strung a selection into something like one flowing poem. An introduction and a set of notes come with it. The voice is warm, witty and a little sad, like a friend at a late table.

重要なポイント 1/7
Omar was a scholar before he was a poet
The poet behind these quatrains is a serious man of science. Omar Khayyam is born in Naishapur, in the Persian region of Khorassan, in the later eleventh century. The introduction tells his story through an old account by Nizam ul Mulk, a great minister who was his schoolmate.
As boys, Omar, Nizam and a third pupil named Hasan Ben Sabbah study under the Imam Mowaffak. The three vow that whoever wins fortune will share it with the others. Nizam rises to be vizier, the chief minister of the sultan. Hasan grabs for power, fails, and becomes the leader of a feared sect whose name gave Europe the word assassin.
Omar asks for none of that. He asks only to live in the shadow of his friend's fortune and to spread knowledge. The vizier grants him a yearly pension of gold. Under Sultan Malik Shah he is one of eight learned men who reform the calendar.
The name Khayyam means tent-maker, and the poet jokes that he stitched the tents of science before the shears of Fate cut his tent ropes. A pupil tells that Omar once said his tomb would lie where the north wind could scatter roses over it. Years later the pupil finds the grave by a garden, with blossom dropping on the stone until it is hidden.
A man who measured the stars and the year knows how little time a person has. The poet who doubts so gracefully is first a scholar who looked closely at the sky and found no answer there.

『オマル・ハイヤームのルバイヤート』についての質問
What is The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam about?
It is a poem of short four-line stanzas about the brevity of life, the failure of learning to explain death, the power of fate, and the pleasure of wine, spring, friendship and love in the present moment.
What does rubaiyat mean?
Rubaiyat is the plural of rubai, a Persian quatrain of four lines. Each one stands as an independent stanza, and in the English poem the third line is often left unrhymed, lifting and holding the wave that falls in the last.
Is the wine in the poem real or a symbol of God?
Readers disagree. Some Sufi readers and a French editor took wine as a symbol of the divine. FitzGerald argues in his introduction that Omar meant the juice of the grape, and the poem supports both readings.
Who was Omar Khayyam and when did he live?
He was a Persian scholar from Naishapur, born in the later eleventh century and died in 1123. He worked as an astronomer and mathematician, helped reform the calendar, and his name Khayyam means tent-maker.
What is the main message of the Rubaiyat?
Life is brief and its great questions stay unanswered, so enjoy the present, show kindness to the clay and flowers around you, and meet death with calm. Spring, friends, verse and a shared cup are the poem's comfort.
