Fedor Gerasimovich Mishchenko (1848-1906), historian, classical philologist, and translator. Mishchenko completed his studies at the historical‑philological faculty of Kiev University in 1870; he then taught at Kiev University from 1872 to 1884 and later became Professor of Greek Language and Literature at Kazan University, where he also served as editor of the Uchenye zapiski Kazanskogo universiteta. In 1895 he was elected a corresponding member of the St Petersburg Academy of Sciences. His scholarly work included articles on Greek history and Greek literature and major translations of classical historical texts into Russian, each accompanied by critical introductions, commentary, and explanatory notes. Among his translations were Strabo's Geography (Moscow, 1879), Herodotus' Histories (Moscow, 1885-1886), Thucydides' History (Moscow, 1887-1888), and Polybius' Histories (Moscow, 1890-1899).

Two volumes (vol. 1: Books 1-4, vol. 2: Books 5-8), translation with notes. Mishchenko's translation was revised in 1914-1915 by Zhebelev – see Zhebelev 1914-1915.
