Publisher description
Excerpt from A Chronological List of the More Important Issues of Edward Fitzgerald's Version of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, and of Other Books, Written, Translated, Edited or Owned by Him: With Portraits, Autograph Letters, EtcThe notes to the separate issues of the Quatrains, taben mainly from fitzgerald's letters, may serve to remind us of what Mr. Edmund Gosse has said about good poetry being almost as indestructible as diamonds. You throw it out of a window into the roar of london, it disappears in a deep brown slush, the omnibus and the growler pass over it, and by and by it turns up again somewhere uninjured, with all the pure fire lambent in its facets.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
