And of course I # have got to fill out the bibliographical data for the # citations. # # But in the mean time you can use this check list. # # If you know of any more published V images, or see any # mistakes here, please let me know. # # DRAFT!!! # # Voynich MS foliation # # Format: column1 column2 ; column3 # # column 1: page numbers according to D'Imperio's book # # column 2: location: # plain numbers = page numbers in D'Imperio's transcription # BL = British Library photocopies (Gillogly has a copy) # # column 3: ; description # # A = Currier's hand A (from computer file) # B = Currier's hand B (from computer file) # # Notes from from D'Imperio, fig.4, p.82: # h = has ``herbal'' pictures # c = has ``cosmological'' pictures # a = has ``astronomical'' pictures # p = has ``pharmaceutical'' pictures # m = has figures of humans # T = text only # K = has ``key like'' sequences # E = has some writing in extraneous (non V) script # # Goal: # A unique unambiguous name for each page in the VMS, # to unobtrusively mesh with the existing foliation # on the MS. # # Problems: # 1. Kraus's "35 MSS" lists 7 double folding folios, # 3 triples, and 1 quadruple. Which are they? # (Context in D'Imperio indicates that ff 3, 72, and 73 # are the triples, that f 86 is the quadruple, and # that ff 67, 70, 89, 90, 101, and 102 are doubles. # This leaves one double unaccounted for.) # # 2. Kraus lists ff 59-64 as missing, Newbold does not. # (Did they get lost in the intervening half-century?) # # 3. The D'Imperio transcription lists pages serially # between 1-111 and 147-166. The gap 112-146 is # 2 pages off the calculated size. Why? (75r should # seemingly be p149 not p147.) # # 4. D'Imperio refers to loci like 85/86r2, presumably # meaning the 2nd part of the quadruple foldout, recto. # Which folio is the quad, 85 or 86? How is the # folding done: accordion style or into quarters; # how do the parts get numbered? What's worse, she # refers to 85/86v5 and 85/86v6, which is odd, I say, # very odd. # # <<biblio>> # References to image and transcription loci: # # Bennett # Blunt & Raphael, The Illustrated Herbal # BL film (not seen) # Brumbaugh, Speculum 49, 1974, p546-8.
