The first palaeographers to assert the Ms is in a humanist script?

[Beatrice]

Sorry, JKP, just a question. What specific glyphs appear to be invented? Thanks.

Most of the VMS glyphs are based on Latin letters, numbers, ligatures, and abbreviations. However, with the exception of EVA-k (which is a common Latin abbreviation), the "gallows" characters do not follow common Latin glyph-shapes, nor are they common to other alphabets in any systematic way.

It's possible they are inventions based on the same general ideas as Greco-Roman scribal shapes, but they are not specifically identifiable. That's why I say Voynichese might include some invented shapes.

As far as I know, all of them appear in most mss. They may have different thickness, roundness or height but it seems to me the scribe invented nothing new, just wrote them differently. For example, your "f" can be different from mine, despite the fact that we both identify it as the same graph for the same fricative sound. So basically we would have here different personal variants of the same graph.
