Russian Russian classical philologist, teacher, and author of the Greek — Russian dictionary Alexander Davidovich Weissman (1834, Kovno province — October 28, 1913, St. Petersburg).
He studied at the 3rd St. Petersburg gymnasium. In 1855, with a gold medal, he graduated from the historical and philological Department of the Main pedagogical Institute. He began his career as a Latin teacher at the Vologda gymnasium (1855-1859), then taught at the First Kazan gymnasium.
In 1865-1866, on a scholarship from the Ministry of public education, he trained in Berlin (mainly at lectures and seminars by Moritz Haupt), where he prepared a master's thesis on Juvenal. On his return in 1867, he entered the service of the newly opened St. Petersburg historical and philological Institute.
In 1872, Weissman became an ordinary Professor in the Department of Greek literature of the historical and philological Institute, which was previously headed by K. V. Kedrov, who became the Director of the Institute. He retired in 1894. From 1869 to 1880 — mentor of Slavic scholars.
Published in the Journal of the Ministry of national education, Russian Bulletin, and Philological review.
Author of commented editions of Sophocles 'Ajax and Philoctetes, and Euripides' Hippolytus (also preserved are lithographed courses of lectures on "Iphigenia in Tauris" and an introduction to reading Homer). In articles about the school teaching of ancient languages, he insistently suggested shifting the center of gravity from the actual grammatical studies to the in-depth commented reading of the authors.
Although Weissman began working on the Greek-Russian dictionary immediately after graduating from the Main pedagogical Institute, the first edition of the dictionary was published only 20 years later, in 1875. During the author's lifetime, the dictionary survived four reprints, as a result of which its volume almost doubled; the 2nd edition (St. Petersburg, 1882) was awarded the Grand prize named after Emperor Peter the Great. Weissmann's work, which filled an important gap in the Russian educational literature, remains the best Greek-Russian dictionary to this day and continues to be reprinted.
