Mysterious, Encrypted Medieval Manuscript Set To Be Published In Replica
"The Voynich Manuscript is a singular mystery. But thanks to a small publishing house
in Spain, the one-of-a-kind text will soon be more like one-in-900."
"The 15th-century document is written in an unknown, apparently encrypted language that has defied every code breaker's efforts. It's illustrated with unknown or imaginary plants and never-seen constellations. The only copy is locked away at Yale University to protect the book; scans online are the closest most mortals can get to viewing its pages."
"The Spanish publishing house Siloe specializes in replicas — very small runs of carefully re-created manuscripts, such as the 16th-century Bestiary of John of Austria and 10th-century Beato Emilianense. For 10 years, Siloe appealed to the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library at Yale, asking for access to the Voynich,Agence France-Presse reports."
