Extractions: Voices from the Past Past masters of metrical perfection speak to modern-day aspirants of the art, and anyone else with ears to hear. Without exception, they urge us to write of what we know, in terms that can be clearly understood, simply because we must. Excerpts from The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam (translated by FitzGerald) Old Poets (Kilmer) From THE RUBAIYAT OF OMAR KHAYYAM (11th century Persian poet) English translation by Edward FitzGerald (British, 1809-1883) L. The Revelations of Devout and Learn'd Who rose before us, and as Prophets burn'd, Are all but Stories, which, awoke from Sleep, They told their fellows, and to Sleep return'd. LVII. When You and I behind the Veil are past, Oh but the long long while the World shall last, Which of our Coming and Departure heeds As much as Ocean of a pebble-cast. LX. The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ, Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line, Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it. LXI. For let Philosopher and Doctor preach Of what they will, and what they will not each Is but one Link in an eternal Chain That none can slip, nor break, nor over-reach. TO A POET A THOUSAND YEARS HENCE by James Elroy Flecker (British, 1884 - 1915) I who am dead a thousand years, And wrote this sweet archaic song, Send you my words for messengers The way I shall not pass along. I care not if you bridge the seas, Or ride secure the cruel sky, Or build consummate palaces Of metal or of masonry. But have you wine and music still, And statues and bright-eyed love, And foolish thoughts of good and ill, And prayers to them who sit above? How shall we conquer? Like a wind That falls at eve our fancies blow, And old Maeonides the blind Said it three thousand years ago. O friend unseen, unborn, unknown, Student of our sweet English tongue, Read out my words at night, alone: I was a poet, I was young. Since I can never see your face, And never shake you by the hand, I send my soul through time and space To greet you. You will understand!

Extractions: AWAY FROM the din and bustle of city life, Omar Khayyam is nirvana. Mount Opera's new restaurant (Tel: 925-272888) named after the versatile Khayyam, spells pure indulgence befitting the philosophy of the 11th century mathematician-astronomer-poet. To reach Mount Opera, head north towards Dilshukhnagar as though you were heading to Ramoji Film City, pull off another three kilometres and you will have arrived at the venue, characterised by a sylvan situation. Unpolluted air, rocks - untouched by time, and a heavenly view from the hilltop are three simple reasons, potent enough to revive one from the fatigue of a 45-kilometre drive through a desolate forest reserve. The theme of the resort is a mixed one, where evolution meets entertainment and lifestyle.

Extractions: VOL. IX - NO. 105 NEW YORK, 1930 FIVE CENTS The medical and intoxicating properties of Indian Hemp or Cannabis Indica were undoubtedly known among the Oriental peoples at an early date. We find a reference to hemp as early as the 5th century B.C. in an ancient Chinese herbal, part of which was written at that time. There are further evidences that its peculiarly exhilarating properties were apparent in the 8th century A.D., when its use was encouraged by the Ismailians that their followers might more fully realize the tenets of the sect, indicated by the following: "We've quaffed the emerald could show!" There is, however, even an earlier reference to hemp than this, for Herodotus (IV: C. 75) discloses a tale of the Scythians who took hemp-seed and put it upon hot stones, and themselves crept under cloths, steaming themselves from the fumes given off by the heated seeds. The vapor bath produced such an exhilarating effect that it caused them to shout aloud. Herodotus further mentions another tribe who were accustomed to inhale the fumes of certain fruits thrown upon a fire, around which they sat until they were excited to the point of singing and dancing. Quite recent researches have shown that Indian Hemp is more exhilarating when inhaled than when swallowed, which perhaps accounts for the fact that these ancient peoples used it in this manner.

Extractions: Click Up For Other Time Periods Ki no Tsurayuki Ki no Tsurayuki (884-946) compiled the second great Anthology of Japanese poetry, the Kokinwakashiu, and also wrote a preface to it that became the basis for Japanese poetics. He was a skilled poet himself, a prose writer, and also an able administrator, becoming Governor of Tosa. In his preface to the anthology (also referred to as the Kokinshiu or the Kokin ), Tsurayuki sees the anthology as preserving something special for humanity: in it, people may forever take pleasure from the form of the poems and profit from their content. Albiruni Albiruni (973-1048 CE) was born in Khwarizm, the modern Khiva (Uzbekistan). He was well grounded in mathematics, physics, astronomy and ancient medicine. A meticulous observer of natural and social phenomena, he recorded information about calendars, festivals, theories, and practices among many nations. Some of these were dying out as he wrote, and he is thus often our only source of historical information about them. He concluded that most countries, including his own, had an unjustifiably hostile view of neighboring countries. Born in Ma'arra, south of Aleppo, Abu 'l'Ala Ahmad ibn 'Abdallah al-Ma'arri (973-1057) achieved fame as one of greatest of Arab poets. He created the

Extractions: Going Global and Surviving. Every month, countless articles, workshops and service bureaus offer "can't-miss" or "hassle-free" tips for international marketing and sales. They are direc-ted at import/export loopholes, others offer personal experience and still others counsel cultural sensitivity. Many of these approaches are oversimplified, fact-specific and do not provide universal solutions. For those of us in the trenches, there are no simple solutions or universal truths. Rather than seeking "one-size-fits-all" answers, companies seeking to go international would be well-advised to recognize the numerous challenges in doing so, and seek pragmatic answers for their specific problems. Distance can create numerous headaches, whether in person or through the phone/fax/mail. Communicating by regular mail is simply too slow and unreliable to be commercially viable. If you intend to compete abroad, you must either have a physical presence in those foreign markets or be able to pay the heavy cost of express mail, international faxes and the like.

Extractions: Turmenistan Teaman Merv is one of the very early centres of civilisation, a huge archaeological site covering 125 square kilometres where one call see the ruins of five walled cities dating from different periods, the latest being from the 18th century. No other abandoned city shows its history as well as Merv, starting with Erk Kala, the earliest structure, dating to the early Persian period (sixth to fifth century BC). This is followed by ruins from Alexander the Greats time and later the Parthians. In 651 Merv fell to the Arabs and became the capital of Khurasan, the easternmost province of Islam. By the 11th century Merv had become the capital of the Seljuk Empire and was the greatest city of the Muslim world after Baghdad and was known as the Pearl of the East. Its merchants roamed far and wide and many great scholars flocked here including the renowned poet and mathematician Omar Khayyam and the celebrated geographer Yaqut Al-Hamavi. The most important of the ancient cities in Merv is the Seljuk city of Sultan Kala and the best preserved of its monuments is the Sanjar Mausoleum with a huge double dome. Also worth a visit is visit Kys Kala, an unusual windowless castle, nicknamed The House of Maidens Tears

Extractions: Mashad Mashad means the place of martyrdom and is an extremely holy city for Shi'ite Moslems worldwide. It is where the eighth grandson of the prophet Mohammad, Emam Reza, was murdered in 817 and has been a place of pilgrimage ever since. The holy shrine of Emam Reza and the surrounding buildings are one of the marvels of the Islamic world and as might be expected all roads in Mashad lead to the sacred shrine. Most of the buildings in the complex, including the mosques, museums, eivans (halls) are open to non-Muslims, except for the holy shrine itself. Dress in Mashad should be particularly conservative.

Books about poetry RELATED PAGES: Modern Arabic literature No people in the world manifest such enthusiastic admiration for literary expression and are so moved by the word, spoken or written, as the Arabs. Modern audiences in Baghdad, Damascus and Cairo can be stirred to the highest degree by the recital of poems, only vaguely comprehended, and by the delivery of orations in the classical tongue, though it be only partially understood. The rhythm, the rhyme, the music, produce on them the effect of what they call "lawful magic" (sihr halal).

Metre ( wazn ) is based on the length of syllables rather than stress. A short syllable is a consonant followed by a short vowel. A long syllable is a vowelled letter followed by either an unvowelled consonant or a long vowel. A nunation sign at the end of a word also makes the final syllable long.
