Much illustrated gift edition of a large format. Fragments from Homer were translated by Lomonosov, Ermil Kostrov, Nikolai Gnedich, who translated from the original and completed it in 1829. Pushkin, in turn, about the translation of Homer responded in print twice - Iliad Homer translated. Zhukovsky began working on the translation of the Odyssey in 1842, and was consulted by the Dusseldorf Hellenist Grashof, who rewrote the entire Greek text.
