Collingwood - Could WW sound out Macmillan the publishers and see if they would be interested in publishing his translation of Homer's 'Iliad' - even though so many translations have now appeared. Another possibility would be to 'print (with some other pieces) selected passages, comprising all what are usually considered Homer's great passages'.
