Khayyám Omar

    Omar Khayyám was a Persian polymath whose philosophical and scientific contributions, including treatises on mechanics, geography, and music, were largely overshadowed by his poetic output. Revered as "the philosopher of the world," his enduring legacy lies in the profound wisdom and contemplative verses that have captivated readers across cultures. Through influential translations, particularly by Edward FitzGerald, his philosophical insights and poetic quatrains achieved widespread fame, cementing his status as a celebrated voice from the East in the West.
