TPO35 In 1912 a bookseller named Wilfrid M. Voynich acquired a beautifully illustrated handwritten book (manuscript) written on vellum (vellum is a material that was used for writing before the introduction of paper). The "Voynich manuscript," as it became known, resembles manuscripts written in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. However, it is written in a completely unknown script. To date, no one has been able to decode the script and understand the book's content. Several theories have been proposed to explain the origin of the Voynich manuscript. One theory is that the manuscript is a genuine work on some scientific or magical subject composed in a complex secret code. Anthony Ascham, a sixteenth-century physician and botanist, has been identified as a possible author, since many plant illustrations in the Voynich manuscript are quite similar to those in Ascham's book on medicinal plants, A Little Herbal, published in 1550. According to some other theories, the manuscript is really a fake and its text has no real meaning. For example, it has been proposed the manuscript was created by Edward Kelley, a sixteenth century personality who extracted money from nobles across Europe by pretending to have magical powers. Kelley may have created the manuscript as a fake magical book to sell to a wealthy noble. He used a made-up alphabet in a completely random order. It looks like a book of magical secrets, but there is no meaningful underlying text. Another theory is that the manuscript is actually a modern fake created by Wilfrid M. Voynich himself. As an antique book dealer, Voynich certainly had the knowledge of what old manuscripts should look like and could have created a fake one. Perhaps Voynich's plan was to sell the fake as a mysterious old book if he received an attractive offer.
The reading passage and the lecture boy discuss voynich manuscripts and the misteries behid them. In the reading part, the bauthor mentions that there is three gusses about the origin of the the manuscripts; in the listening part, however, the speaker challenges what the author states and refutes the reasons.
To begin with, as mentioned in the artcle, the author sets forth that they realeted to magical things and science becouse of the similarity between plants and the medical plants on sixteen centeries. Nevertheless, the professor rebuts the reasons asserting that the thing on manuscripts is very important than be magic and it could be a well known sorces if it used for scientific stuffes and it should be coded on that time.
Secondly, the author points out that there was a fack manuscript to extract money and sell them to wealthy people; nonetheless the speaker flathly contradicts the reasons and contends that should it was used for tricking people it would demands lots of efforts and the people who lived on that time were not fulish. it means that they could recognized the fack ones, whereas, for such books so much work would be needed, it was not simple.
Finally, the author claims that maybe voynich made all of them by himseflf and it does not realated to the acrant pasts. In contrasts, the professor is off the opinion that with modern technology we can recognize the actual time of the evidences. Therefore, if he made them, the pape and also more important the eink can be dataed and it indicated that there were produced four handered yeaers before sixteen centeries, mich more older that VOYN
