The letter attests incidents of competition between peers. Epiphanios had sent a letter to Tzetzes informing him about a number of malign rumours circulating about him (Ioannes). Ioannes in his letter reacted to each of them separately.
On its role and position in the Chiliades, cf. Pizzone 2017: 185.
