The hubris of Simonides’ anti-philology was best captured by the theologian Samuel Prideaux Tregelles (1813-1875), who noted that the insanity of his project was surpassed only by his sin.14 Tregelles’ vehement rejection of Simonides points to an understudied religious and moral aspect of the latter’s endeavour.
