رودكي و عمر خيام

Rudaki and Khayam

The logical and systematic study about intellectual peculiarities of a writer, poet and artist is an exact scientific way that can guide us toward their world. This essay is based on a comparative study and analyses of the thinking of the father of Persian poem- Rudaki- with quatrains of the sage Omar Khayyam. We will show in this research that, in fact, there are so many of the common aspects between these two great pieties despite of a few various differences. Khayamic soul, which is a reflection of thinking prevalent before Islam, has also some traces among the works of the other poets before him. The writers of this article try to explain common poetical world with the exact explication of their verses. If we look deeply, we will see that their conceptual source is the same. We will compare their thinking in the field of worthlessness of the world, certainty of death, seizing the moment, disapproving of hypocrisy, and so on.
