41. 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

Omar Khayyam and a Geometric Solution of the Cubic by June Jones About 900 years ago, Omar Khayyam, the Persian poet and mathematician, found a geometric solution of a cubic. He solved a cubic in the form x3 +a2x = b by using a pair of intersecting conic sections. The figures in this essay were created on Algebra Xpresser but the TI-81 or 82 would be appropriate also. With one of these or the grapher or software of choice, the reader may recreate this ancient procedure. As you perform the following steps, vary the values of a and b. 1.) Construct a parabola of the form x2 = ay. 2.) Draw a semicircle with diameter AC = b/a2 on the x-axis. Let P be the point of intersection with the parabola. 3.) Drop a perpendicular from P to the x-axis to produce a point Q. Your basic figure should look like the one pictured below. It has been labeled so that an example can be looked at before we tackle the general case. It is set up with a = 1 and b = 2. Thus AQ = 1, AC = 2, and QP = 1. Our cubic for this example becomes x3 + x = 2. x2 = ay P A Q C We already know that the real number solution to x3 + x = 2 is 1. On the figure we see two places that this value occurs. Let's try another example and see if one of these locations might be the solution we are seeking. The reader can tentatively verify the values by using the software tracer.

Omar Khayyam Omar Khayyam's full name was Ghiyath al-Din Abu'l-Fath Umar ibn Ibrahim Al-Nisaburi al-Khayyami. Khayyam studied philosophy at Naishapur. He lived in a time that did not make life easy for learned men unless they had the support of a ruler at one of the many courts. However Khayyam was an outstanding mathematician and astronomer and he did write several works including Problems of Arithmetic , a book on music, and one on algebra before he was 25 years old. In the latter, Khayyam considered the problem of finding a right triangle having the property that the hypotenuse equals the sum of one leg plus the altitude on the hypotenuse. This problem led Khayyam to solve the cubic equation x + 2000 and he found a positive root of this cubic by considering the intersection of a rectangular hyperbola and a circle. An approximate numerical solution was then found by interpolation in trigonometric tables. Perhaps even more remarkable is the fact that Khayyam states that the solution of this cubic requires the use of conic sections and that it cannot be solved by ruler and compass methods, a result which would not be proved for another 750 years. In 1070 he moved to Samarkand in Uzbekistan, one of the oldest cities of Central Asia. There Khayyam was supported by a prominent jurist of Samarkand, and this allowed him to write his most famous algebra work

Omar Khayyam (ca. 1048-1125) Persian mathematician, astronomer and poet best known for the Rubaiyat ; also helped reform the solar calendar. Khayyam was an outstanding mathematician and astronomer who wrote several works including Problems of Arithmetic , a book on music and one on algebra before he was 25 years old. An invitation was sent to Khayyam from shah Malik-Shah in 1073 asking Khayyam to go to Esfahan to set up an Observatory in the city. Other leading astronomers were also brought to the Observatory in Esfahan, and for 18 years Khayyam led the scientists and produced work of outstanding quality. It was a period of peace during which the political situation allowed Khayyam the opportunity to devote himself entirely to his scholarly work. During this time, Khayyam led work on compiling astronomical tables, and he also contributed to calendar reform; in 1079 Khayyam measured the length of the year as 365.24219858156 days. Khayyam also solved the cubic equation x3 + 200x = 20x2 + 2000 and he found a positive root of this cube by considering the intersection of a rectangular hyperbola and a circle. An approximate numerical solution was then found by interpolation in trigonometric tables. Khayyam seems to have been the first to conceive a general theory of cubic equations, and perhaps even more remarkable was that Khayyam stated that the solution of this equation requires the use of conic sections and not the ruler and compass method, a result which would not be proven for another 750 years!

Statue of Omar Khayyam O mar Khayyam lived between 1044 and 1123 CE and his full name was Ghiyath al-Din Abul Fateh Omar Ibn Ibrahim Khayyam. Omar Khayyam was an outstanding mathematician and astronomer. He was also well known as a poet, philosopher, and physician. In the "History of Western Philosophy", Bertrand Russell remarks that Omar Khayyam was the only man known to him who was both a poet and a mathematician. Omar Khayyam reformed the solar calendar in 1079 CE. His work on Algebra was highly valued throughout Europe in the Middle Ages.Apart from being a scientist, Khayyam was also a well-known poet. In this capacity, he has become more popularly known in the Western world since 1839, when Edward Fitzgerald published an English translation of his Rubaiyat (quatrains). This has since become one of the most popular classics of world literature. It should be appreciated that it is practically impossible to exactly translate any literary work into another language, what to talk of poetry, especially when it involves mystical and philosophical messages of deep complexity. Despite this, the popularity of the translation of Rubaiyat would indicate the wealth of his rich thought.

Omar's great scientific fame, however, is nearly eclipsed by his still greater poetical renown, which he owes to his ruba'is or quatrains, a collection of about 500 epigrams. The peculiar form of the ruba'i four lines, the first, second and fourth of which have the same rhyme, while the third usually (but not always) remains rhymeless was first successfully introduced into Persian literature as the exclusive vehicle for subtle thoughts on the various topics of Sufic mysticism by the sheikh Ab Sa'id bin Abulkhair, but Omar differs in its treatment considerably from Abu Sa'id. Although some of his quatrains are purely mystic and pantheistic, most of them bear quite another stamp; they are the breviary of a radical freethinker, who protests in the most forcible manner both against the narrowness, bigotry and uncompromising austerity of the orthodox ulema and the eccentricity, hypocrisy and wild ravings of advanced Sufis, whom he successfully combats with their own weapons, using the whole mystic terminology simply to ridicule mysticism itself. There is in this respect a great resemblance between him and Hafiz, but Omar is decidedly superior. He has often been called the

His poetry really only became widely read when Edward FitzGerald collected several quatrains (rubaiyat) that were attributed to Khayyam and translated them into English as the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. The common view in the West of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam is that it is a collection of sensual love poems. Although some scholars debate this question, many people assert that Omar Khayyam was a Sufi, as well as a poet and mathematician, and that his Rubaiyat can only be truly understood using the language of mystical metaphor.

It is thus very appropriate to call this time the Time of Omar Khayyam, as Omar is already very well known to a large number of readers. It is probable that his name is more familiar to them than that of any other Muslim scientist. It will thus be relatively easy to remember the title, and I trust that this remembrance will reach to some extent the contents of the following pages. The time of Omar Khayyam was the end of the golden age of Muslim science. A new Muslim sect, that of the Assassins, an off-shoot of the Ismailiya movement, originated in Cairo about 1080.

Hakim Omar Khayyam Iranians used to praise AHURA MAZDA, during their prayers in about 2500 years ago, for the enjoyment granted to them. This enjoyment-loving became a secondary nature and as a part of Iranian habitudes. But due to wars imposed to Iran and the influence of Greek Philosophy, such enjoyment-seeking morale mixed with grief and pain, manifested eventually in eternal Quatrains of OMAR KHAYYAM (about l048-1123) of Nishabour-Khorasan, Iran. Although Khayyam is considered to be a pessimist poet, like most Iranian poets, to Khayyam, it has a high philosophical aspect. On one hand, his thoughts are always mixed with sorrow, grief, death and annihilation, and at the same time, he invited human beings to happiness and enjoyment. "Let us be happy, Time is passing by. There is no return, when you go, you are gone." We observe such reflection at Hafez Poems about 250 years after Khayyam, as well. Edward Fitzgerald (1809-1883), of BRITAIN was the first who keenly and sharply found that Khayyam's Quatrains would reflect the common spritual needs of human beings. By receiving inspiration from the quatrains, he published 75 Rubaiys, at London, for the first time, without mentioning the name of the translator. At first no one paid much attention to it, but later on, when the scholars discovered the philosophical and literary values, the public paid a welcoming attention as well, praising the totality, comprehensiveness of Khayyam thoughts and elequence of Fitzgerald. The Second, third and fourth editions of the book were sold as if they were precious jewels, bringing about the worldwide fame.

A literal translation of the name al-Khayyami (or al-Khayyam) means tent maker and this may have been the trade of Ibrahim his father. Khayyam played on the meaning of his own name when he wrote:- Khayyam, who stitched the tents of science, Has fallen in grief's furnace and been suddenly burned, The shears of Fate have cut the tent ropes of his life, And the broker of Hope has sold him for nothing! The political events of the 11th Century played a major role in the course of Khayyam's life. The Seljuq Turks were tribes that invaded southwestern Asia in the 11th Century and eventually founded an empire that included Mesopotamia, Syria, Palestine, and most of Iran. The Seljuq occupied the grazing grounds of Khorasan and then, between 1038 and 1040, they conquered all of north-eastern Iran. The Seljuq ruler Toghrïl Beg proclaimed himself sultan at Nishapur in 1038 and entered Baghdad in 1055. It was in this difficult unstable military empire, which also had religious problems as it attempted to establish an orthodox Muslim state, that Khayyam grew up.
