Scope and content
Handwritten notes by Rica Singopoulo on the recto of eight sheets. Blank versos, except for the one of the fourth sheet. All sheets are numbered 1 to 8 at top right. Biographical notes, pertaining to the life, habits and social encounters of Cavafy. Also, information about the members of his family (parents and siblings). It appears that the notes were written after the poet's death and the information comes from Singopoulo's own knowledge as well as from the remains of Cavafy's belongings. Certain inaccuracies are observed, such as the poet's date of birth (1865 instead of 1863).
