Firstly, she was female. Second, she was an author and she wrote her original manuscripts, and therefor is a scribe. Thirdly, she was synchronous with the early range of VMs C-14 dates. She worked in Paris and was patronized by Valois royalty. So, there are some visual indicators of historical similarities, but only on an artistic basis; cloud-bands, rainbows, nine Muses, etc. Other paths [BNF Fr. 565] also lead to Paris. It has more to do with place, than with a known person.
Earlier, there was Hildegard of Bingen. So, the possibility of female writers is valid. They could be nuns; certain groups did still flourish in the C-14 era. However, I see the point as moot. It is irrelevant to interpreting the VMs language. And the evidence is apparently insufficient to make a clear determination.
thank you for reply(∩´∀`)∩
she is the one candidate of writing VM, isn't she?
