===============================

The Discovery of the Codex Sinaiticus as reported in the personal letters of Konstantin Tischendorf
https://www.academia.edu/1123038/Th...he_personal_letters_of_Konstantin_Tischendorf

Tischendorf’s personal letters to his fiancée/wife Angelika and brother Julius. Not only of interest for the Sinaiticus, this voluminous correspondence provides a highly entertaining view of Tischendorf’s travels throughout Europe and the Near East, his hobnobbing with royalty and equal joy in collecting books and personal distinctions.

It is hoped that the following summary, with the barest annotation, will prompt a complete edition and study of the letters

The page numbers are those in the transcription of the letters typed by Tischendorf’s daughter, in the family’s possession, photocopies of which have been deposited in the library of St Catherine’s Monastery at Sinai.

The case of this codex Sinaiticus raises interesting questions about the trade in and availability of such important artefacts that have sometimes been hidden because of the subtle boundary between private possession and exclusive access at the beginning of the twentieth century, a crucial historical period for Quranic studies.
