While Homer's Iliad and Odyssey have been translated into English many times from the original Greek, this 1535 edition is a Greek-Latin parallel text. There is no evidence of an English translation of the specific Latin version (likely that of Andreas Divus or Lorenzo Valla) contained in this Renaissance edition. English translators historically work directly from the Greek source, leaving these specific Latin renderings untranslated into English.
