Carl Douglas and Shawn Chapman, lawyers in Cochran's office, also gave interviews to Schiller, as did 27 other people.

But Chapman's translations were both thrilling enough--see Keats' sonnet On First Looking into Chapman's Homer--and challenging enough to provoke competing versions. Since Chapman, nearly four centuries' worth of British and, later, American writers have taken on Homer...
