Abstract
The first part of the article is a compilation of available data on the life and work of a late 17th and early 18th century scribe and poet, the little known Father Pilibos-Pilibbe Tekirdaghtsi. Born in the 1650s or 1660s in Tekirdagh, at an early age Father Pilibos migrated to Kilis, where he settled and lived the rest of his life. Basing his work on information gathered from diverse manuscripts and colophons, as well as lines from Father Pilibos's poems that refer to his biography, the author narrates the life of Father Pilibos and details the five manuscripts he copied. As three of the six poems have the same date, 1708, the author speculates that Father Pilibos could have been a prolific writer and that more of his poems might be found.
In the second part of the article five original and heretofore unpublished poems of Father Pilibos are put into circulation along with a version of a sixth previously published poem.
One of the poems is dedicated to the locusts that struck Kilis on April 15, 1708. The others are dedicated to St. Stepanos Oolnetsi, the resurrection of Christ, the light at dawn, and the Virgin Mary, while the sixth is about the "Crossed King, Lord of Heaven".
