Voynich research needs
Hello,
This is my first post to the list but I've been following the conversation
for some time now. I'm a grad student in information science, and would
love to focus my energies on a Voynich-related project. My question to
the list, then: What are some useful avenues of inquiry? I've read the
suggestions of Mary D'Imperio, in her monograph, and Jim Reeds, on his
web site. My coursework has exposed me to information retrieval, and I
read with interest Gabriel Landini's application of Zipf's laws to the
VMS.
I hope this post sparks a general discussion of "work to be done", and I
would particularly value any opinion or advice on areas that would both
advance our understanding of the VMS and fall within the scope of a
semester- or year-long graduate project.
Thanks and best regards,
Jason
