Some additional references to Voynich's Jesuit manuscripts

[ReneZ]

For quite some time I have been intrested in the correspondence between Belle Da Costa Greene, famous librarian of the Morgan library in New York, and the art historian Bernard Berenson, who lived in his own Villa near Florence.

The reason for this interest is that Voynich knew Berenson and had shown him some of his 'fine manuscripts'.

Fortunately, I learned from Lisa that this correspondence (the part written by Greene to Berenson) has not only been digitised, it has been fully transcribed and is available online.

It is truly fascinating to read through this material.
Unfortunately, Greene has destroyed everything that had been sent to her privately, so Berenson's letters are now lost.
