Munby
“Facts about Simonides are not easy to come by”, wrote A. N. L. Munby, Phillipps Studies, IV, 1956, p. 114, in which his chapter VI, pp. 114-31, is my principal source for the visit of Simonides to Middle Hill. Munby, in turn, drew from J. A. Farrcr, Literary Forgeries ....

There is still no modern narrative dedicated to the career of Simonides; a biography was at one time announced from Bruce Whiteman, whose papers for the project now appear to be in the Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library in Toronto.

Frederick Madden refutation of 1859 Stewart bio - sees Leipzig leaves on Tischendorf 1865 visit

CARM https://forums.carm.org/threads/codex-sinaiticus-and-constantine-simonides-timeline.13239/page-55#post-1711268 TNC I'm interested in finding this Journal entry by Sir Frederick Madden mentioned on Page 202 (above book) Footnote 1: 1 A Biographical Memoir of Constantine Simonides... with a...

Madden's account of
seeing the Leipzig leaves of Sinaiticus in London is in his journal for that day, Bodleian, MS
Eng. hist, c.178, pp. 11-3. Tischendorf’s lecture was published as Memoire stir la decou-
verte et I'antiquite du Codex Sinaiticus (l.u a la seance du 15 feerier 186, London. 1865,
not mentioning the presence of the original leaves, although this was recorded by a witness
in The Journal of Sacred Literature, 7,1865,p. 108.

the internet will bring up numerous conspiracy theories crediting Simonides not only with Sinaiti-
cus, against all rational and chronological evidence, but also with the Artemidorus papyrus,
owned by a bank in Turin, in which he had no part either.
