My Rubaiyat (1916)

My Rubaiyat is a collection of poems written by Sadakichi Hartmann and published in 1916. The Rubaiyat is a form of Persian poetry that consists of four-line stanzas with a specific rhyme scheme. Hartmann's collection consists of 101 Rubaiyat poems that explore themes such as love, nature, and spirituality. The poems are written in a free verse style, with a focus on imagery and symbolism. Hartmann's work is influenced by his interest in Japanese art and culture, and this is reflected in his use of haiku-like imagery and themes. The book is a fascinating insight into the mind of a poet exploring a form of poetry that was relatively new to Western audiences at the time. My Rubaiyat is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of poetry and the cross-cultural influences that have shaped the genre.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
