  1. Of or relating to Edward FitzGerald (1809–1883), English poet best known for translating The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam.
    • 2021, Mohammad H. Tamdgidi, Omar Khayyam’s Secret:
      Such an expression of attribution to Khayyam is justified, for it refers to poems that have been found in manuscripts dating back to the pre-FitzGeraldian era, having been attributed to the historical Omar Khayyam []
