Attributed by modern researchers to the second half - the end of the 3rd century AD. e. The epic poem “After Homer” by Quintus of Smyrna is the only detailed poetic account of the events of the Trojan War following the ending of the Iliad that has survived from classical antiquity. During late Roman and Byzantine times, it was perceived as a necessary connecting “bridge” between the two Homeric poems and as such served as the third, along with the Iliad and Odyssey, an obligatory component of the literary canon formed around the Trojan subjects. Full translation of the poem into Russian has not been published to date. Small excerpts from the work of Quintus of Smirnsky could previously be read in the anthology “Monuments of Late Antique Poetry and Prose of the 2nd-5th Century” (Responsible editor M.E. Grabar-Passek. M.: Nauka. 1964). In preparing the translation, the main critical editions of the text, some of the existing translations of the work into European languages, and the latest research literature about the poem and its author were used. The translation is supplemented by an article covering the history of the study of the epic, a commentary and a name index.
