31. INSAP3 Excerpts and commentary with reproductions of some of Elihu Vedder's illustrations. http://www.minaret.org/INSAP3.htm

ASTRONOMICAL REFERENCES IMAD-AD-DEAN AHMAD Minaret of Freedom Institute 4323 Rosedale Avenue Bethesda, MD 20814 USA Delivered to the Third International Conference on the Inspiration of Astronomical Phenomena, Mondell, Sicily, January, 2001 ABSTRACT. Omar Khayyam was both an astronomer and a poet. We examine the astronomical references in different translations of his poetry and in Elihu Vedder's illustrations of the first American edition of Edward Fitzgerald's famous translation as the takeoff points for discussing the controversy as to the meaning of his poetry and the differences in culture between 11th-century Iran where he wrote them and 19th-century Britain and America where Fitzgerald and Vedder respectively were born. Coming from a society in which science and religion are viewed as antagonists, Fitzgerald misconstrued Omar’s poetry as a materialist diatribe against religious belief. Like all great poetry, Omar’s verse is so deep and so rich in meaning that it can be understood on many different levels and in different ways. Thus, many people from atheists to Christian clerics, from materialists to mystics, have professed that Omar is one of them. Speaking as an astronomer, I can say without fear of contradiction, that Omar was definitely "one of us." For that reason it is appropriate for this meeting to take a look at the astronomical allusions in his poetry and compare how their interpretation is affected by cultural context. I here focus on the literary translations of the Iranian-American scholar Ahmad Saidi (1991) and the British poet Edward Fitzgerald and the artistic interpretations of the American artist Elihu Vedder who illustrated the first American edition of the Rubaiyat (Fitzgerald 1884). Given the location of this conference, I should mention that Vedder executed his illustrations during his lengthy stay in Italy in the early 1880’s. My research has also been informed by reviewing a number of literal translations, notably those of Graves and Ali-Shah (1967) and Arberry (1952).

32. Omar Khayyam And Max Stirner Article by H. Ibrahim Turkdogan, using his personal experience with the writings of khayyam and Stirner to build a bridge between Eastern and Western thought. http://www.blancmange.net/tmh/articles/maxomar.html

Omar Khayyam and Max Stirner A BRIDGE BETWEEN THE ORIENT AND THE OCCIDENT Those who mean to understand poetry will have to visit the land of poetry. Those who mean to understand J.W. von Goethe Preface It was years later that I did not only begin to understand Chajjam as a poet, but also as a poet-philosopher. Naturally I also began broadening my knowledge of eastern and oriental philosophies as well as western philosophies. This enabled me to look through the traditional, i.e. strictly rational mode of thinking. Stirner had criticized this mode of thinking, which has no likes Stirner was right when declaring this nation to be one tyrannizing her children. 2 Ecce Homo. Edited by Kroener 1990, p. 339 It sounds very mystical and promising, but the sounds of his words suggested a golden cage, which was hard to escape from. Heidegger himself: something existi ng as an object turned into something existing as a thought, stayed there and did not proceed any further. And Heidegger himself, some being whose structure of existence being a limited One only amounts to Being-In-The-World . The basic structures of his concrete Ego as One in an objective world of things permit him to sneer at the animal inside himself in order to cope with it, in order to defeat it. The abstract object changed into a concrete subject by means of perpetual thought processes. It became a subject, which only vegetated as a prisoner of a particular logic in the dusk of occidental gods. The victory of the speaking animal, that

39. Glossary: Khayyam, Omar Glossary entry for khayyam, omar. khayyam, omar. omar khayyam was a twelfthcenturymathematician, astronomer and teacher from Nishapur in Persia. http://www.harbour.sfu.ca/~hayward/van/glossary/khayyam.html

Glossary entry for Khayyam, Omar Khayyam, Omar Omar Khayyam was a twelfth-century mathematician, astronomer and teacher from Nishapur in Persia. He was also a poet, the author of numerous rhymed quatrains or four line poems, a verse form called in Persian "rubai". These four-lines epigrams were brought together in collections called Rubaiyat. Over 700 years later, in 1857, one such Omar manuscript came into the hands of Edward FitzGerald, who made from it one of the most popular poems in the English language. Experts have argued at great length whether FitzGerald's adaptation of Omar's poem is a faithful translation, but no one argues its beauty. The themes are earthy, yet infused with speculations on man's spiritual destiny. Perhaps the strong feeling of "Carpe Diem" or "seize the day"-motifs explains Van Morrison's attraction to these poems. After all he writes elsewhere: These are the days now that we must savour And we must enjoy as we can These are the days that will last forever You've got to hold them in your heart This echoes some of the sentiments in The Rubaiyat, as in these stanzas:
