Are Chapman's translations of Homer any good?

Yes, you fucked up. Read Chapman's or Pope's translation.

Don't go with English Romanticism, most cring era. If you want good English poetry go with poets from the English Renaissance. If you want specifics I would recommend some shit like Sir Philip Sidney and his "Astrophel and Stella" or anything by Edmund Spenser; John Donne, Sir Thomas Wyatt, and Walter Raleigh are great as well and George Chapman's "Bussy D'Ambois" and his translation of Homer is also equally as great. If you want something a little more modern and American go with Emerson, Whitman, and Hart Crane. If you know German and really, for some reason, want something from 18th and 19th "Romanticism" go with Novalis or Hölderlin. "Beginner" is cursed, dive in or parish like a dog. I can explain why these poets more in depth if anyone wants to know.
