Abstract
Demetrius Triclinius, the very important Byzantine scholar, was born at Thessalonica around 1280 and lived along the reigns of Andronicus II and Andronicus III Palaeologus. We may therefore place somewhere in the present decade the commemoration of the seventh centenary of his birth. This homage is certainly well deserved by a philologist who prepared and improved many editions of Greek authors, specially the tragic poets, with an extraordinary competence and acumen. He is one of the few among his contemporaries who worked with a true philological method and this fact distinguishes him from them and allows us to view Triclinius as a true predecessor of the Renaissance Humanists.
