Dear Forum,

after several revisions of the book “The incredible unravelling of the Voynich Manuscript” I have now decided to openly discuss my work for the Voynich.Ninja forum. 

I hope that the version now available will make it sufficiently clear that, according to my findings, the Voynich code is based on the medieval system of abbreviations, but intentionally breaks its usual rules to create an independent secret code. In my opinion, the Voynich Code is a deliberately created mixture of characters and abbreviation signs from various epochs and regions as well as of unencrypted and partly self-invented written characters - and thus a masterpiece of creativity, which can nevertheless be reconstructed due to its following of certain sets of rules.

The central question of the solution presented, however, is neither the question of the derivation of the written characters, nor the question of the authorship of the manuscript (discussed in detail in the text and finally marked as speculation). Rather, the crucial question arises as to why there are so many similarities with Latin word stems, each of which is purposeful and meaningful in its context. From my point of view this cannot be a coincidence, even if my knowledge of Latin is not sufficient for a concrete and reliable resolution (see part 3 of the text). The same result is obtained after further spot checks at all other places in the manuscript.

Somewhere in the vicinity of the presented results the secret of the Voynich code is hidden, I am convinced of that. My wish would be that a constructive discussion of the results takes place, which will hopefully contribute to a decisive progress in Voynich research.

Paul, I can't look at this in depth until this evening, when I'm done with work but I wanted to point out that the Conium maculatum is an umbellate plant and the plant drawing on You are not allowed to view links.

In my simplistic view there are two elements to investigation. There is the method, which you claim to know. And there is the subject, which I would like to suggest, a specific segment of text, the outer band of VMs White Aries (f71r).

Show us how you do it.
@Paul
Do you still have the german version ?
Hast Du noch die deutsche Version in PDF ?
Is this a claimed decipherment? And if so what does the Voynich say? Or is this book speculation/discussion on what the cipher might be?

I am reluctant to spend time looking at another theory as there are so many.

I don't know if you have read into the book yet, but there is a whole section of the book with translations (complete sentences and paragraphs, see part 3), and (coincidence?) a translation of the middle ring of folio 71 r.

Do you have an authorship claim?

What percentage of the total text do you claim to have translated?

I have a translation test that I wouldn't mind carrying out on you. Although if you have numerous readings of the same word then it probably wouldn't work.
@ Aga Tentakulus: Ich habe jetzt auch die deutsche Version unter dem gleichen Link bereitgestellt. 
Viele Grüße Paul

Thanks for that, it makes reading easier.
If I understand the paper correctly after briefly perusing it the suggested author is Emperor Frederick III, Holy Roman Emperor from 1452. For a variety of reasons this seems to me unlikely.
