VMs: George of Trebizond...?



Hi everyone (and especially Rene),

I wondered what George of Trebizond's birth date was, and so decided to ask John Monfasani directly. His reply (just received) was:-

	Look at my Collectanea Trapezuntiana, pp. 855-56, where I report
	David Pingree's correction of what I [had] given as Trebizond's date
	of birth. He says the date is ca. midnight 4/5 April 1396.

Interesting... reviewing the evidence Monfasani pulled together in his Collecteana Trapezuntiana book might well prove to be an interesting exercise. Luckily, the BL has two copies...

Cheers, .....Nick Pelling.....
