Meanwhile, the part about this being a womenРІР‚в„ўs health manual was already a widely discussed theory in Voynich scholarship. She added that the experts at YaleРІР‚в„ўs Beinecke Library (where the manuscript is kept) РІР‚Сљwould have rebutted in a heartbeat.РІР‚Сњ Lisa Fagin Davis, director of the Medieval Academy of America says that the Latin explanation doesnРІР‚в„ўt hold together, and that the РІР‚СљtranslatedРІР‚Сњ lines offered by Gibbs donРІР‚в„ўt make any grammatical sense. Based on this, Gibbs concluded that the Manuscript was a medical manual on womenРІР‚в„ўs health, compiled by a team, possibly for the benefit of a single rich commissioner. Gibbs claimed that the manuscript was an anthology cribbed from other manuscripts, some obscure, others popular, and that the mysterious script was an idiosyncratic version of an otherwise well-known system of Latin abbreviations. Personally I object to his interpretation of abbreviations.РІР‚Сњ Kate Wiles, an editor at History Today, replied, РІР‚СљIРІР‚в„ўve yet to see a medievalist who does. Р”Р„s HarvardРІР‚в„ўs Houghton Library curator of early modern books John Overholt put it on Twitter, РІР‚СљWeРІР‚в„ўre not buying this Voynich thing, right?РІР‚Сњ The mystery of the meaning and origin of the manuscript has excited the popular imagination, making the manuscript the subject of novels and speculation. No one has yet demonstrably deciphered the text, and it has become a famous case in the history of cryptography.

The Voynich manuscript has been studied by many professional and amateur cryptographers, including American and British codebreakers from both World War I and World War II. However, most of the plants do not match known species, and the manuscriptРІР‚в„ўs script and language remain unknown.

Much of the manuscript resembles herbal manuscripts of the 1500s, seeming to present illustrations and information about plants and their possible uses for medical purposes. Some pages are missing, but there are now about 240 vellum pages, most with illustrations. It is named after the book dealer Wilfrid Voynich, who purchased it in 1912. The Voynich manuscript, described as РІР‚Сљthe worldРІР‚в„ўs most mysterious manuscriptРІР‚Сњ, is a work which dates to the early 15th century (1404РІР‚вЂњ1438), possibly from northern Italy.

My analysis seemed to me to reveal a cumbersome mixture of different kinds of substitution.РІР‚СњР”Р„Р’В history researcher and television writer named Nicholas Gibbs published a long article in the Times Literary Supplement about how heРІР‚в„ўd cracked the code on the mysterious Voynich Manuscript. It was clear that the productions of these two men were much too systematic, and anything of the kind would have been almost instantly recognisable. Friedman disclosed to me his belief that the basis of the script was a very primitive form of synthetic universal language such as was developed in the form of a philosophical classification of ideas by Bishop Wilkins in 1667 and Dalgarno a little later.
