Mehdi Aminrazavi

Mehdi Aminrazavi is Associate Professor in the Department of Classics, Philosophy and Religion at the University of Mary Washington in Virginia. He is an expert in Islamic Thought and Medieval Philosophy, and has edited or authored several books in these areas, including an Anthology of Philosophy in Persia (with S. H. Nasr, Oxford University Press, 1999). He is the recipient of numerous prizes and honours for both his research and his teaching, and is a member of the editorial board for several journals. Dr. Aminrazavi’s preoccupation with the legacy of Omar Khayyam dates from his childhood visits to Nayshabur, where he heard for the first time the powerful message in the poetry being recited around the poet’s tomb; simple words which have proved inspirational to thousands both before and since.
