Register or Login to view.Regarding marginalia’s significance for understanding the Voynich manuscript, I think it has to be put in perspective. It could involve as much a misunderstanding and “hallucination” about the VM as some of our own tries today, AI assisted or not.
True, and it is also important to remember that the last page marginalia is written in the same ink as the Voynich main text. So by whomever, meaning whatever, it was applied about the same time as the author of the Voynich did, and from the same inkwell. That knowledge might be helpful, in some way, to understanding its meaning and purpose.
Thanks for your note. I agree that, if the ink proves to be of the same ink, it would mean it was written by the scribe. However, following what Jorge_Stolfi has noted, it is possible that a scribe may not have known exactly the meaning of some of the texts or images as well. I am really not decided on the extent of that knowledge. It could be just a scribing of what (in my view) Margaret left them. I am more inclined on that route now. In that case, I would not readily assume the marginalia author (if a scribe) also knew, and may be speculating. So, I am open to your point, but it is hard to know without further investigation and finding.
