Dorota Elżbieta Simonides (born 1928 Janów) - Polish folklorist and politician. Professor emerita of the Faculty of Philology, Opole University.
During the People's Republic of Poland period she joined a small non-Marxist 'satellite party', the Democratic Party (SD), and was a member of parliament of the Sejm of People's Republic of Poland in 1980–1985. She was one of only a few MPs who did not vote in favour of martial law in 1981 and the criminalisation of Solidarity in 1984.
She lost her library (5 000 volumes) during the 1997 Central European flood.[1]
