The correct option is George Chapman.
George Chapman (c. 1559 – 1634) was an English dramatist, translator, and poet. He was a classical scholar whose work shows the influence of Renaissance humanism. Chapman is best remembered for his translations of Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, which were the first complete translations of these epic poems into the English language.
His translations became highly influential, famously inspiring John Keats to write his celebrated sonnet, "On First Looking into Chapman's Homer."
